HRP's will usually have less barring in some instances, their mouths are shaped downwards, and the fins have a blue/red color to themat my store it said normal convict. but now that i look at pics of them my fish is not as blue as them. its more white. with black stripes. but it is still little so maybe it hasent got all the color yet. idk im confused now lol and if i use wiki it says convict and looks the same as what i have. but that is user generated and other people could be mistaken
