    Default Heckel Cross from Malaysia

    Hi everyone,

    I recently picked up this beauty from the LFS here in Dubai. All I know it's a Heckel Cross from Malaysia.

    Do any of you recognise this particular Cross?


    Thanks

    Not sure... maybe a rose red or red cover mixed with some form
    Of heckle. Nice looking fish looks to have a lot of growing to do. Like the potential there.

    That discus is showing a lot of color for its size. It looks like it can still add some good size but you would have to provide a really good environment from this point forward for a good size discus.

    Very pretty though.

    Agree a whole lot of potential in that fish.

    Here's the "pair" of them, due to the poor lighting (moved them to a 35 gal short term to use their tank as qt for the new wilds) the coloring doesn't pop as much as in real life. Phone pic.
    I know the other one is a runt, but I bought both together anyway to give her some company. They're at the cone non stop.
