    New retic, need opinions

    Traded for this guy, he's a year old and supposed to be a dwarf sunfire. Scales on head match up with jampea, but not so sure on the sunfire, most I have seen were brighter... Thoughts?

    Welcome to the forum Nick. Congratulations on your good looking boy there!
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    tail trailing edge looks to be slightly floating - not Jampea - Sunfire alone suggest mainland is in the blood. Most sunfire stuff has been bred to Selayar dwarf local in order to get sunstripe combos. The low quality appearance of the sunfire alone in this example may be a case of the Selayar blood showing through. It tends to add contrast and busy patterning.

    Is it a knock out example, up to you. Is it a dwarf sunfire - 100% on the sunfire, and likely 25-62.5% Selayar for the dwarf.

    Cheers
