Hello all,
when I first bought him 2 months ago I was told he was a Green Terror, then I post pics of my fish
on another board and some said he was a GT and some others said he was a Blue Acara, and then some
said he was a hybrid, but I would really like to know what he is and his max size as he is in with
and Oscar so if he is just a small guy then he will have to be traded in to something bigger,
thanks in advance heres the pic:

EDIT: I forgot to add that he is about 3"s TL...

I just don't have enough
experience with these types of fish to make a claim, but I am sure others will chime in.

My bet is blue acara.
Like any gambler, ready to lose my bet.

I'ts not a Green Terror, but some other kind of Aequidens, Looks
like it may be a smaller, less agressive species like the blue acara.

not every fish looks
just like another of the same sp.
a lot of time it will not look like pictures you will
find online.
wait till it grows a bit more you will know for sure.
but
dose look mostly like blue acara like they said above.

Acara to me too.

I too would place my bet on
"Aequidens pulcher".
