I thought I'd share a pic of 'Blue'... So We thought she might be a Puget Sound... Then we thought she may be Anery Red Sided... So what is she?

She is more blue than the picture suggests btw. Her hubby has more of a red and yellow side pattern with blue stripes (Defo not a Cali Red Sided). More or less a red sided/Puget for the male 'Red'

The colour and head shape says pickeringii, but the pattern says concinnus????

I would say concinnus - anerythristic perhaps?
the head looks a little different, but it may just be the colour throwing me off

Concinnus would be my bet.

looks like a concinnus to me, I don't see pickeringii at all.. there are phases of oregon red spots that don't really have much color to them.... like a grayish, greenish tint, can you post pics of her "hubby"? it sounds like he may be a different species! Concinnus don't have yellow side stripes!

My male has a bright green one, one of the high black females has a dull green one, and the other knocks me out with the fluroescence of hers!!! it's quite attractive coupled with her fire engine red head and black body!
