Title: "X-Factor Convict" Hybrid
Post by: Regalblue on June 04, 2013, 08:37:33 AM: I saw this fish at Royal Tropical Fish&Bird on Saturday 6-1-13.
Best guess is it's a cross between Convict & Barred Midas. But it has blue eyes like a Cutteri.

There were 3 available at 7-9" I only took pictures of the Bull male though.

It does look pretty good. Looks thick. Wonder the temperament?
