This is a photo sequence of my supposed Freddy, "Spike"
These are in order of when they were taken.
I have posted this on several other forums, and no-one seems to know why he has done this.

Wow, an xanthic form! It happens in the nature sometime but rarely. That fish is probably bred in Australia because a few hobbyists in Australia have encountered the same thing.

When bred the dorsal fin trait will carry over in half of the fry. You will need to selectively breed afterwards to eliminate the problem.

Your color change is from juvenile to adult and your morph is as mentioned xanthic. I agree. This fish should be bred to continue the color morph.
