Education please.

Post by ozzy »

Hi everyone, I wonder if you could help me with identifying these plecs I recently bought. They are all supposed to be the same species. I see two are a different colour form, if indeed they are the same species at all! I think I can work out the sexes but if anyone wants a stab then great. Thanks.

Well it certainly isn't . I'd agree that it's one of the L66 or similar Xingu type things.

Thanks for your help guys. So would it be fair to say I have five L066? Anyone think differently?
