That one is an older picture, it's a female and she was probably 3 months old at the time. She's holding right now at about 9 months or so. It's funny, the females of these hybrids are yellow, males are blue

Yes, they do. The males tend to have a light blue with bold black stripes. Females yellow with pale stripes. Both can turn white with pale stripes at will. Very unusual fish!
