Thanks for the reply. The stripe patterns appears different from johanni. The base colour purple/somewhat blue tones is what throws me off from concluding its auratus.
Thanks Noki. Auratus /chipokae hybrid seems most probable. It is subdominant so it might not be demonstrating full coloration. The dominant fish is a 4 inch female auratus type in the background of the third picture.
