I do not see a tilapia in your tilapia action shot. Only a ray, an acaronia, and an acara.

I don't know much about tilapia but I believe many of the food fishes introduced around the world (which then get loose and invade everywhere!) are either hybrids or at least cultivars that may differ substantially from wild species.

Very nice. I have a Tilapia like that. Not sure of the sex but it just looks like a Blue Tilapia. The most common type. That Acara is awesome. What kind of Acara exactly?
