In my opinion, it is very debatable since I haven't seen a juvenile L095 or a mature L152 in the aquarium trade. Although, it is not uncommon in the animal kingdom for young specimens to exhibit changes in colouration and physical formation as they mature and grow, but my gut tells me that the L152 is not a juvenile of the L095. Its warm chocolate base colour is indeed far from the gray-dotted pigmentation of the L095. Still, much is to be seen as my specimen is still young and developing. I hope to collect some more of this "tough-looking" specimen and continue to document their behavior and development.", (12) snike.
