I have these fish! They are stunning! I also mistook them for
trifasciata but after a while you can tell the difference. They are very
attractive as I said earlier... I was told they are a cross between
trifasciata and G. incisus. They certainly have the incisus face but
the Tri. body plan and black lateral stripe but at the end of the day
one can see they are niether.
I know one person said destroy them but don't do that. Put them in
a display tank and just admire their beauty. I've never seen any
females of these fish.
