Apistogramma cacatuoides (which variant?)

[JG]

Hi all,

Picked up this fella a few weeks ago in Michigan and he's settled in nicely. Interesting yellow coloration throughout the finnage and body. Was wondering what variant or tank strain this cac is known as.




Thanks,

J

Looks like an interesting strain of Yellow-Gold from Double Red x Yellow-Gold. This is the most common way to produce healthy Yellow-Golds, but usually they show red fins.

I'm unable to see any red in the fins either so I was wondering what this was. Thanks Mike.
