Weird endler colors

So a while back I got some endlers from an lfs just to initially stock a new tank as I didn't want to have the tanks beneficial bacteria to die. I only got 3 endlers. 2F 1M. The male is a standard N class endler. He had a silverish base color with bright spots of orange, black, green, and a little bit of blue. The females are well, female endlers. One is a little yellower and the other a little greyer. Out of the first batch if fry there was only one male. This male has really colored up in the last three weeks. I'm pretty sure he is as big and colorful as he's gonna get. But here's the weird part. Almost his whole body is black. I've attached a photo for you to see. He still has bright orange twin bars like his father and a distinct turquoise spot by the dorsal. I'm just trying to figure out if this is an N class endler, because I've never seen one like this before.

I've seen some odd and uniquely marked and colored endlers and one place used to remove all unique ones and sell them separately. You'd have to find a good endler breeder I think to get this question answered correctly.

True true. I'm almost positive there is no fancy guppy because there isn't any long finnage or anything, which is good
