Tuba are some of my favorite too, but I found them to be one of "the" most aggressive species I have ever kept.
The first time I had them, I got 7 two inch juvies, at about 5" the largest (a female) killed all others in a 150 gal tank.
I gave it to a friend who had 3 adult males. She killed two, and finally spawned with last male.
She is in the photo below guarding eggs.
After the fry hatched, I ended up with another half dozen or so, and they all killed each other by the time they reached 3".

It looks a lot like a virus hartwegi, or "tail bar". Probably just a lower quality one? They look more vibrant on google lol
Most of the photos you come across are full colored adults. Yours has some potential for sure, once it gets comfortable and gets some size I bet you have a winner there! I'd put my money on hartwegi for sure, especially looking at your new photos. Be sure to keep us updated with fresh pics every now and then!
)) thank you!
