A close relative to the electric blue the male iceberg blue develops blue in head, body and fins. A white blaze develops will along the dorsal fin and down the head and will eventuall find its way down to half its body(this is where the fish gets its name as it will be half white half blue like an iceberg floating in the ocean). The male dorsal fin will show red, orange or yellow over the blue. Female remains silver; however mature females may show slight hints of blue in the head, body and fins.
