| only thing i would say is a bit off is the body, usually there a lot more slender, but it could also just be bad genes, poorly breed continously. I had one just like it that got killed, and he would always stay more towards navy blue instead of electric blue. | |

| lighting can play a role in the color tho. plus the resolution of the pics are not great since they were taken with a cell phone. | |

| It is some variant of Copadichromis, maybe a hybrid of that and a electric blue. It is not a pure electric blue fryeri for sure. | |

| That pic really sucked. I have seem in person, and it's a really bright blue. He's a really nice fish. Just bad pic | |

| I say that more for the body than the color. This is a pic of one of my Copadichromis Most, but not all Copadichromis have a few black spots on their sides. The pic of the fish in question does have vertical bars like a fryeri, but the body of a Copadichromis. I would say once upon a time in the family tree there was a Copadichromis Azureus that bred with the fryeri. I am not 100% sure either way from the pic, but if you sell it you need to know what you are selling to price accordingly. | |

| thats what i say, the body is a bit off, it could be a cross between a azuerus and electric blue, but i don't know. | |
