Australian or Indonesian ?

[Retic730]

Good evening group ! Anyone keep Harlequin tusk? Does this look to be the Australian or Indonesian locality thanks for the insight

Fish was acquired from a large saltwater tank and has been in that same tank for 2 years prior owner had to move and sold him to me , he has a solid white tail and bluish teeth from what I gather online those are some of the signs to be Australian not to mention the more Vivid color I am no means an expert so please feel free to comment what you guys think thank you so much in advance !

The difference between the 2 are the aussie colors are brighter

Seems to me the Aussie also has more blue in the body and orange end on the tail.

thanks for the response every one ! my local fish shop also thinks this one is aussi ,
regardless he has a happy home and is doing great on his feedings and activity
.... I would like to add a trigger fish to the tank as it is a fowlr tank , he is housed with
a maroon clown and a one spot fox face. they are quite the group of pals !

I have a indo feed well and under leds. I couldn't be happier, I've seen brighter aussies but mine is also brighter than some of the aussies I've seen. If he is under 5" it's probably an indo, the aussies never seem to come in any smaller. That's why I got an indo.
I have a pink tail and pair of blue jaws with mine in a 210. The tusk is very cool, cruising the rocks, he's very smart too, found a place where the food flows when I feed and just lays back and chomps away.

Hey cougar he is close to 7 inches and what is yours fav foods , so far

He's really not picky, anything chunky. I chop up shrimp, squid, and scallops. PE mysis, krill; I cut trigger formula, formula one, marine algae formula into bite size chunks. I saw him sucking on a snail the other day, it was funny to see his lips inside the shell. Definitely a fantastic fish.
