Pseudacanthicus sp. L282?

Post by 7Pete »

Hi. I received an interesting Pseudacanthicus piece a month ago. It's 30 cm male with "pure" dark black body with bright white spots. I find it interesting that L097 is said to be smallest pseudacanthicus but this male is already 30 cm at a age of ~6 years. So could this be the controversial Venezuelan L282? I can only tell here that it has been exported through the big "eastern" country when it was a small specimen and sold as L282.
