I found the following ad for some blue acara, but they seem to be more GT to me. Would you guys mind taking a look please.

Edit: Thank you :rolleyes:
 
tbh I would ask if they could provide you with a few more pics,

The yellow on the dorsal fin on the fish on the left makes me wonder if that is a GT, but my initial thoughts are they are BAs
 
They could be hybrid, because the one on the right looks more BA, whilst like Davo, the yellow dorsal makes me think GT.
 
Thanks guys, will ask for another pic if possible.
 
I can't tell with that picture. Ask for a close up on a few of the fish, and we will be able to tell better.

The person selling the acara has kindly sent me another picture. I think I have finally found one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
They do seem to look blue acara :good:

Usually green terror's will have a yellow stripe across tail and fins where blue acara seem to have more reddish....

The black stripe usually goes striaght through the eye of the blue acara and finish at the gill plate and blues usually have more of a blueish to the scales where green terror seems to be more of a greenish tinge,
 
100% sure it's a blue acara. Green terros tend to have bigger heads and bigger eyes. Also orange on the edge of the tail.
 
Thank you everyone. I was not sure with the first picture as when I enlarged it I thought they had a green tinge, but the orangy/red on the dorsal fin confused me (easily done) Have mailed the chap see if I can pick one up.
