Wal-marts' been stocking south-central american fish lately. They had convicts, JDs, and when seem to be flowerhorns. I picked this guy up a few weeks ago...

He's got more color on him then that...his fins are a tinted red and his spots are surrounded by bright blue scales. Could he be a red terror? I'd think he would be flowerhorn because of the spot behind his eye and his blood red eyes...

But anyways...he's sooo cute and friendly! And he's growing as fast as an oscar @_@

I would say it's an FH rather then RT. Colour will change heaps as it matures.

That's good to hear. :) I've read that RT males can grow 16-20"...
