Is it pretty aggressive?

[garfy]

could it be a female electric yellow? u cant see it in the pic but on her fins she has faint black lines.

No the head shape is all wrong.Looks more like a type of Zebra to me maybe a hybrid.

Try to get another photo if you can? Where is your location. People who live in the same area may have shops that get in fish from the same wholesalers and might help you ID your fish.

My best guess is that it is a female "johanni". Our johanni's in Australia are from a terrible gene pool and I would wager my house that almost all M. interrutpus and or saulosi blood in them. Hence the barring that is common in them here.

It kind of looks like our Aussie johannis. Was bout to post this, then deleted it then saw page 2.

You wouldn't happen to live in Australia would you? LOL
