What kind of carpintis is this?

Pics: please forgive the injuries. He's arch rivals with my geophagus brasiliensis (who is also one mean son-of-a-*****)

Doesn't look like a true carpintus, appears to be a cross.

Looks like something with trimac genes..maybe a cross between a trimac and a texas if that's possible..
I had one that was sold to me as a Flowerhorn and it was a really mean son of a ***** as well..

I knew it, always thought he was a trimac-carpintis hybrid.

Red texas is a mix of carpintis and hemichromis. And this guy seems to be mixed with an amphilophus trimac, the main fish used to make flowerhorns

Hemichromis is a West African cichlid. I don't think anyone is crossing those with New Worlds.

Dude... A central mixed with an african?

Red texas is a hybrid. Which may consist of many different species.

My money is on red Texas too.
