First off I want to say that I got this Rotkeil from my LPS. He was in the tank with five or six green big 7 inch Severums and a big Oscar about 10 inches. Anyhow, I always look at the tank when I go there, then I saw a different Severum there and he looked pretty tore up. I noticed he was different with a red shoulder and a light blue face. I was thinking he was a Rotkeil, then I asked the guy who worked there how much it was and he said it was 40 and I asked the manager to give it for me for 20 and he did. Then I picked him up and brought him home.
Anyhow, he's in my tank now. He's about 4-5 inches. It seems like he's not coloring up. I don't know why because he's the dominant biggest one. I'm thinking he needs a female in order to color up. I'm just wondering if it's a red head Rotkeil or not or what kind of Rotkeil is he ?
Thus is a picture is of him:
This is a picture of what I think he may be.
I thought it could be this one though.
If it's the blue face one then I already have 6 but don't mind having one more.
If you could help me and let me know which one it is, I'd glady appreciate it.
Thanks.
