It has the colors of a carpintas..... but it’s not an actual carpintas.
My best guess is that it’s one of the recent ones to be imported into the US from Thailand ....
They call them Thai green Texas and are sold through the flowerhorn market. That is my guess on the fish in question.
Then again, it could also be one of the petsmart red Texas.... they seem to be shaped like this and never turn orange or red.
Where did you see this one?

I saw a trio of them at Aquarium & Garden in FW, the shop closed since, but I snagged one which I believed to be a male three months ago.
He has a very pink-body underneath the pearling so I thought he may be some sort of flowerhorn/ Texas hybrid. Sitting at a decent 7” at the moment
I’ve seen some Rio Blue Texas that have a very similar look to them as well, so I’m not sure as to what he is.
I appreciate the insight though!
