in my unprofessional opinion i think its a red turk.......
Pretty sure its a wild fish... but unsure of the type (possibly tefe green). Good quality wild fish are pretty rare. There are domestic strains such as alenquers which kind of look like wild fish.
Considering the book I scanned it from I dont think it is a wild strain the authors seemed to prefer non-wild but I could be wrong. I wouldn't mind trying something like the pictured fish or a turq (if anybody wants to swap for something(s) on my EOI list in trader)
