WHO THINKS THEY KNOW WHAT BRRED THIS IS?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Wonder how people are saying it's an RTG when there isn't any gold shine at all. Looks to be an extraordinarily good looking G2 in my opinion. Reason why i don't think it's a Red is because the pectorals are a tad bit too short to pass off as a G1 Red. I'm guessing it's cheap cos' of the slight mouth defect. Is there?

But that's just me sir.

Don't you see the 4th level shine? The shine goes up to 4th level, but theres no gold. It has green horshoe pattern of a Green still. The dorsal,anal,caudal fin resemble an RTG. Therefore I believe this Aro is a crossbred. Don't G2 Red have red/orange dorsal fin? Mind showing us a picture of a G2 Red that looks similar to this specimen?
 
You're right on the crossbred part. But in the 2, 3 and 4th pictures, it has the coloration of a G2 Red(and some low quality G1s), especially the finnages. I used to have 2 Reds that look almost identical to this minus the horse shoe markings. G2s don't only have drab red/orangey dorsal fins but all the fins. This guy has orange/red on his fins as well.

BUT THEN AGAIN, it is very hard to differentiate fishes between RTG, G2, G1, so on and so forth, especially at such a young age. Even people on AF have a hard time when it comes to properly identifying Asian Arowanas. But i do have to go with your RTGxGreen guess. The Red genes have more or less been bred out due to the RTG heritage mixed with the Greens. But it's definitely not an RTG, RTG.

Yes, I know that G2s have red/orange on all fins. I'm just saying dorsal fin because the specimen posted by Goestonemoa doesn't have red on dorsal fin. It has grey/black color like a typical RTG. A reason why I eliminated the possibility of G2. ;) Since there was no gold, and @ 8"-9" an RTG shouldn't have green horshoe marks. Therefore a purebred RTG was eliminated. My best answer would have to be crossbred. Too bad the certificate stated "Kaiju Green". This is a great opportunity for others to learn about Asian Aros. :)
 
it looks like my old banjqr. i dont see anything wrong with the mouth. maybe a little bit protuded. or maybe coz its a bullet head. thats not an rtg for sure and not a green
