I thinks it's a trifasciata female

Let me know what you think.

hard to say, they photograph isn't that clear. She looks like she's very stressed...

It might be a trifasciatus, see also this picture; female i had in the past.

She might be. I have another one that is more blue, but otherwise looks exactly the same. I expect that's the male....

It's soft acidic water, about 80F. If she is stressed, and not just scared to be out in the open, I wouldn't have the first idea why. I have panduros, cacatuoides, and rams in the same tank, so I can't imagine why the trifasciatas would be stressed when the other fish are great. The cacatuoides are finally starting to come out to say hello!!

what's the size of your tank?

Right now they are in a 29 tall. In the next couple days I'll be spreading them out - as I build my fishroom. I think I'll be putting the cacatuoides in with my blue angels in another 29 because I have a bunch of small caves and stuff for them.
