Different colored L 333 ?

[Scat38]

Hi,

I bought 6 juvenile L 333's last year that i have been growing out, I have always noticed but never really thought anything about it up until now that the one that seems to be a male is much more yellow than the rest of the 333's i have, I did read that yellow meant that it is just a location variation but am looking for your guys opinions on this please.

Here are some pics.

This is what the 5 L 333's look like.

This is a pic of the yellow looking one.

Here is a comparison pic.

Here is a older pic where i thought the colour wasnt so different.

Thanks is advance

Interesting Craig

I have both variants growing on in 2 tanks and they all look the same.

Maybe the parents were the 2 variants and hence the different colour.

Yeap. Just looks like one of the Gold/brown variants I have. Wether infact they are all the same fish but just from different regions then who knows:dk:

Thats good to hear as my concern was that you guys might say its a hybrid and then i would cry and have to deal with it !
