Texas?

[Rambo85]

Hi folks,

Can anyone tell me if this is a Texas/cyano/carpitinsis? I am new to these fish and just cant tell the difference. The fish is about 8" including tail for reference.


Sorry for the crumminess of the pics

Thanks.

Im pretty bad at deciphering these guys but I too would guess Carp.

I actually wanted to just say that he is awesome! LOL

any idea at the sex? or would i have to vent the fish?

It's a regular variant Carpinte, and by the looks, a male. Look at its dorsal and if it has a black splotch on it it's female, I don't see one so I'm guessing male. Venting is always a fore sure thing though.

yup its a carpintis. texas is just a common name, better to not even use this name

Safest bet is to vent. But i would guess a male.
