This is an offspring, but I was told they looked like hybrids on another forum. I did purchase the parents as M. greshakei and thought they looked like the species was supposed to.

They look like M. greshakei to me. Why did they think that they where hybrids?

My M. greshakei is the only one able to pic algea near the outlet of the Aqua Clear 110. There´s a halogen light above it so there are loads of algea at that spot.
