Green finned lionfish

[Cu455]

I bought this lionfish at the store today. It was labeled as a dwarf lionfish. This lionfish has some really green fins. I took the pictures on my iPad so the green doesn't really come out that much. I will use my DSLR when I get home. Just wanted others opinion on what kind of lionfish this might be.

Looks like a Green Fuzzy LF, Dendrochirus barberi. See here for more info: http://www.lionfishlair.com/careguides/lionfish.shtml#meetlions

Thanks I am going to read the article. My lionfish looks like the live aquaria zebra lion fish except with greener fins. I know that there pictures aren't always accurate.

No QT?

I wasn't going to until I read this. I might be thanking you for saving my tank.

A zebra was my first impression but I am not positive, it's been a while since I've ided lionfish and I do not have a book handy

Looking at it again, I think you are right, in fact I would put money on it. D. zebra.
