Red Texas Cichlid??

[fish_freak]

Is this a dyed fish or a new trait breed in? Way to much money for me plus I like the nautrual color better anyway. It kinds of looks like one of those red danios from that glo fish company.

Hybrid I believe

Hybrids — apparently a type of Flowerhorn with some percentage of Texas Cichlid blood.

I have seen this pic before, though not the actual fish.

The intensity of red in the pic makes me beleive that it is touched up. Either way anything close to this amount of red, is very beautiful.

they are like a flowerhorn

A hybrid of Texas and Blood Parrot. I see no trait of Trimac genes in it. When you hybridize fish, they come in all gradation and you never know what each individual will turn out.

Yea it looks like it has been touched up to me also, but it most likely is a hybrid.

from what i have read most of the ones people are produceing are red devil or midas crossed over texas. The rd will give the orange/red color while the tex will leave the bluish spotting. just what i have read.
