Nice looking fish!!

That's not mottled. It's the normal coloration. Very nice fish. The normal morph is soooo much better looking than the red.

I'd easily pay $50 USD or more for that fish.

Thats an awesome Snook.

yeah definitely a snook. Can't believe we don't see more of those morph around the fish trade. LFS near me has a couple of these but they focus more on the all reds with about 3-4 tanks full of red morphs.
