as said, it certainly is a severum... I wanted to say it was a Gold severum, till I saw the second pic... does it looks like is has an orange tint like in that photo? I've never seen a severum with that sort of colouring. (Then again....... I just know about green & gold severums. :blush: )

EDIT: whooooooo! 100 posts!
 
I think it looks like a "Wild" severum, sometimes named "Redneck Severums", this is what wild caught sevs look like.

And i think the white fish in the second picture although a little blurry and hard to make out looks like it could be an Albino Oscar from the body shape, difficult to tell though without seeing the eyes and a none blurry picture.
 
thanks, it's tough to get a good pic of him. the other fish is a giant gourami. they are all about 3-5 years old. The sev has some cool colors, orange, blue, black, and grey
