Hi!
I wanted to know if any of you has kept or keep this species.
How do you tell him apart from the other species...
How big can they grow?
Any sexual dimorphism?
Cheers

I have one (I think). The pics in the Cat-eLog are those of my fish (it came as a contaminant in a shipment of regular banjos). It was easily distinguished from the other banjos by a more unifrom coloration and a noticeably shorter and narrower head and thoracic region. There is no known sexual dimorphism (since I have only one, don't take my word for it).
Otherwise, it behaves pretty much like any other banjo (albeit a little more active than ol' coracoideus).
