Melanistic sterbai?
Just picked up a batch of sterbai that I had a lfs order for me. One appears melanistic. Darker bodied and the pelvic fins are colored and spotted unlike the others i have which are not. Had anyone seen this before?

Re: Melanistic sterbai?
Looks normal to me. Just different stress coloration. Also, males are overall darker than females.
