Trimac or...???

[kpicht]

Hi , Today I buy this guy in the LFS, they didn't know what it is and they labeled it as "Tilapia" ...is 3".....I know that it's a trimac or a super-low-low-low quality FH ....I only pay $3 for it, and it doesn't matter if it's the lowest quality FH, I just wanted a big guy for a 90gal tank.....but I want to know what it is, single curiosity ....thanks a lot

Wait and see what colors your fish turns when it's a little bigger.

Does look like it could be a hybrid but I don't know if I'd call it a FH

Hi . Thanks a lot for the answers....it' doesn't matter too much to me what this guy is, the only thing is that I hope he'll grow with a body similar to a trimac even if he doesn't have bright colors like a FH... I will take that it's a very rare Super low quality FH ...just for give him a name ...right now he's bulky, with green-yellowish body color and with no other color except the three dots and with a reddish caudal fin...red eyes and with big theets..........
Here where I live (Bonn) is really hard to find SA/CA American cichlids ...oscars, severums, convicts, and sometimes GT, JD or a pike, everything else is a raritie here ......but if somebody want a Discuss fish, here we have every Discuss flavor you can imagine...I don't like them, because everybody have Discuss here....
Thanks a lot for everything .

Looks like it could be a low grade FH, but hey at $3 you can't go wrong.

Not sure exactly where Bonn is but I spent 3 yrs in Bad Hersfeld!Love the beer!

That doesn't look like a trimac or an FH to me. I remember I used to have a low grade FH and even at 3" it had more color than than.

First generation hybrid perhaps? It took on a lot of the Trimacs physical traits but could change as it matures.

It's personality will probably be pretty cool.
