I am not certain, as your fish maybe has a bit of growing to do, but I'm leaning towards you fish being the new species. Check out and .

Cheers,

I'm gonna continue the topic here on its own post :D

My Bolivian is full grown, I've had him well over 1.5 years now and he has not grown past the 2.5"-3" he's at now.

I don't know where the store got him from, but I do know their rams are also expensive lol I paid $17 for him.

For all I know he's a hybrid.

This was him when I first got him

A couple other pics from over the time I've had "him" (I'm not even certain on the gender fwiw)

One in natural light while flaring.

I'd say a standard, but very nicely coloured male Bolivian Ram. Looking at the reply from jams in this post, the male in the comparison photo is similar to yours. Is your 2.5"-3" total length (including tail)?
Thanks
