Its neither to the best of my knowledge... closer to a Synspilum, but my guess is its crossed..

Fennestratus have a black band that goes from the base of the tail, to mid stomach and do not develop blue on the face...

and Zonatum dont have all that red in their fins... and Zonatum being very rare in Oz, its highly unlikely...

Hartwegi is another possibility as they have more random colouring...

Juvenile fenestratum.

When it grows you can know for sure if it is crossed or not.

Definitely not synspilum, hartwegi or zonatum.

I have all four, once you see them together it becomes easier to tell the differences.

By the way argentae are here :)
