Its a shortbody leucistic convict. Any parrot cross that would yield perfect convict phenotype with the leucism trait intact would be a hell of a lot of breeding for something so ho hum.

Here are f1 con x bp. No shortbodies, no self colored yet, mixed phenotype. The fish in this thread is pure shortbody convict. They have been around since the late 1990s. Called jellybean sometimes commercially. The shortbody trait can influence other skeletal system features like mouth and fin shape.

There is a habit of people assuming anything shortbody is a parrot mix. As you can see the fish pictured in the linked thread are actually longer bodied than pure convict and they are parrot crosses.
I typically dislike all short bodied fish (just not my thing), but I actually like the look of this male.
