Yup, Green Terror. I think it is a royal GT, which gets quite a bit bigger than a true GT.

Gold Saum, Aequidens Rivulatus: http://www.cichlid-forum.com/profiles/species.php?id=502. Not the true Green Terror: http://www.cichlid-forum.com/profiles/species.php?id=2437. (http://www.cichlid-forum.com/profiles/species.php?id=2437)
Great fish, awesome personality, quite a bit like an Oscar in owner responsiveness.

Always wanted to know - what's the difference between a GT and a Gold Saum? Is a GS just a strain of GTs that have been bred to be a bit 'fancier'?

That was an interesting read, thanks for posting that!
I have a wild Silver Saum Green Terror approx. 7,'5 I purchased from Jeff Rapps awhile ago and they are hard to find and worth some $$$. If you can obtain the true green terror, then hold onto it, because you won't find them out there.
