Yet another fish ID

[Big_Z]

I think it is a cross between cyanoguttatus X carpintis. Any other thoughts?

The rock behind it makes it look a little bigger than it is. Its actually less than 2 inches long so might possibly still be displaying some juvenile coloration.

What did you bought it as?

Could even be a hybrid such as red texas.

The mass confusion of cross breeding and hybrids. I think it is a green texas but I would not swear to it.

"Green Texas" adds to the mass confusion. Theres no such thing. Its simply a marketing term for shops/sellers not wanting to use the scientific names or think that the term "Green Texas" sells better than their scientific name.

There is cyanoguttatus, carpintis or hybrid.

No way to tell on this fish yet.

looks like a young cyano to me, but there will never be any real way to know what it is unless you know where it came from so
