I'd just say it is a snakeskin even it has some spot gene in it.

Thaks xeriod this fish got sold to me as a snake skin from exotic discus in oak forest Im guessing you know about that place since you are in illinois like me this is a picture of a spotted leopard with fry that i bought from the same place it looks different to me http://i1321.photobucket.com/albums/u560/84mos/discus%201-29-13/593FE62D-546B-4233-8516-1EBA8F213412-1244-000002FE05380689_zps17aed155.jpg

I got some fish from him early on,and they were hormoned up,color enhanced.A yellow diamond and a pink melon after six months looked almost exactly alike.That being said,they look alright,a little small,and thier fry,look very good,imo.Creamy white in the center,fade to orange with black outlines on fins.

Thought for a second you were describing an Oreo cookie.
