Wondering since if it's just local variant of P. apogon or probably belongs to another species. Thanks for the help guys.

It's just a regular Phalacronotus. I can't tell the difference between P. apogon and P. micronemus, TBH.

Thanks Silurus! Have a hard time asking about the id & came up with no good answers. I forgot to tell that they possibly came from Musi, Sumatra along with shipment of the glass cat.
