I didn't answer because I don't know what it is, but I'm pretty sure it's an L066 or related type.

Amazing fish..

I got some of those in my last shipment form the lower Xingu.
In my opinion L340, L66 don't particularly fit the description of them.

I wonder if he has more information about the collection point.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought L340 was restricted to the Orinoco.

L340 is from a Right-side (Colombia) drainage into Rio Orinoco, AFAIK.

I think what Unungy was trying to say is "it's not L66, nor is it L340, but it is a 'lower xingu' form".

Yes that is correct Matt.

As always it is my humble opinion based on collections I've had or previous shipments brought in.

Ah, I see. I didn't parse that correctly.

Yes, I didn't think it was L66, but I can't keep straight all of the L66-relatives like Lower Xingu and L399/L400 and such.

Hi All,

Thanks for all.
I selected it from a L333 group and I don't know collection point.
Does anyone has different opinion for this fish ? I need more information. ^^
Thanks.
