Okay, I was at my lfs awhile back and was looking around. I looked in the little parrot tank and saw a white one with patches of black. Had room in one of my tanks so I bought it because I've never seen a parrot like that before. Now, I've noticed that it's not fat like a parrot and all the black has gone away. I looked and saw spots. Oh no, ick. I looked closer and they were bright green pearls. You can kind of see the pearls on the red parts of the gills. What is this? Can't see the pearls from the pictures.

Still a noob and really don't know what fading is. The fish I've seen that's faded don't look good to me, no color. Anyways, what color do you think he/she will turn up to be?

Appears to be some sort of shortbody fader flowerhorn.
 
zooming in on the 3rd pic, I can see pearls all over that fish ;-)
 
Buying fish and staying home keeps me from going out with the boys every day and night and staying home with the wife. Actually, the fish I've been buying are ones I've never kept before. Been reading about them like a maniac. Remember, "happy wife, happy life."


Lmao fishaholic
 
No, only every other week!


You have a problem dude, you post a new fish every week

Can anyone tell me what it actually is and what colors it might turn into? Still have light green pearls but can't find out it is.
