Well guys I bring you some problems to identify hahaha!!! This fish was imported from Malasya as Golden johanni... in my experience is quite common that this name is given to the Ps interruptus because of their colour when young and the colour more yellow ish of the female in comparison with female johanni.... the thing is that the colour has changed a lot since I bought it, but not following the patterns neither of the Johanni or interruptus, then I am really confused right now... the I would like to know what do you think about it and what could it be... the male is 6-7 cm long now and the female a bit smaller.

Here you have some pics.

The male (at least) looks like a hybrid
