We got this guy a week ago and not real sure what he is. The lighting makes it look yellow but its orange. The little bit of research I've done,I'm coming up with a red zebra male. Am I right or wrong? Please help.My 4yr old son wants to know how he should name it,boy or girl name. ha ha. Thanks.

your right on red zebra, they vary from red to yellow .i can't see it's dorsal fin clearly but if it is elongated it's a male if it's squared off it's a female .
