there are different theories about what exactly the "common green terror" really is. some believe that the common green terror is a hybrid of up to 6 very similar and closely related species. others believe the common green terror is really a closely related species called Aequidens sp. 'Gold Saum'. Personally I think I tend to agree more with the hybrid theory for a couple of reasons. You will hear a lot of varying information on green terrors when you ask around. Some will say they'll max out in size at 8" while others will say closer to 14". Some will say the green terror is a psychotic killer while others will say they are somewhat peaceful. If the common green terror is a hybrid then that would explain the varying opinions and information given about them.

All that I can tell you for sure is that the common green terror is not the real green terror Aequidens rivulatus. There are not many people in the states that currently own a true rivulatus, though I believe at least 1 or 2 are attempting to spawn them to make them more readily available.
