Any ideas on what this little fella is. I got him in a batch of Hongi fry and he was very similar for a while. Then he started colouring up differently. His bars get very dark and continue up his top fin. Would appreciate any help :D

Thanks guys, I'd have to agree on that, plus I just found out the bloke I got my Hongis from has these guys as well. That explains his origin then. :D
