Juvenike regal angelfish

[Elijahyar]

Hi guys and girls! Just picked up a juvenile captive bred regal angelfish, but am wondering if it truly is because it doesn't have the eyespot on its tail/dorsal fin. Can't get a foto of it as yet but any help with identifying it or possible alternatives would be greatly appreciated!

Need photo, but … you’re not sure if it’s a Regal? Or not sure it’s juvenile? Or it’s CB?

Not sure if it's a regal! It's definitely a juvenile, it's only around 3 inches long!!

I guess I'm mainly wondering whether the lack of an eyespot could indicate it not being a regal. Apart from that it certainly looks like a juvenile regal!?

A friend of mine picked up a couple of CB regals…. As I recall, at least 1 did not have the ‘eye spot’

Ok that is a bit of a relief!! If anyone else has any insight I'm all for it!!
