I bought this fish at a LFS and they sold him as a pearlscale. He has changed color since then going from all white with black touches to this wonderful golden yellow and orange. What is he mixed with?

Thanks

It's hard to tell if this fish has pearl scales. The body type is not typical of a pearlscale though. It also looks like there is a bit of headgrowth, so maybe an oranda somewhere in there.

You can see here in earlier photos why I believed that this fish was a pearlscale. Now it's looking less and less.

Hard to tell, may have been a cross, does not look like a typical PS, but nice red Ryukin!

Maybe some fantail in there, too? It has the "pudginess" in its face that looks somewhat of an oranda. It is very cute and has lovely colors!
