Two of these lovely fish were given to me because the original owner could no longer care for them properly. He said that he bought them from a LFS as "Red Dragon" variety. They do not look like Red Dragon fish that I am familiar with. They are juvies, about 21/2 inch SL. Will they change as they mature? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Maybe a marlbro red, but being young could change quite a bit yet.
Red Dragon is an old name for what is a regular type of pigeon blood discus. This fish could well turn out as a red dragon, he certainly has the heavy peppering like the original type.

Looks like a marlboro red to me right now, but could change quite a bit in the next few months.
