Labelled as L102 -> ID please

Post by Yo-han »

This fish came in as L102, which I don't believe it is because it's lacking the black seam around the fins. Looking though the site, the closest looking picture are those of L136c and the hybrid between L136 and L066. All I now is that it was wild caught and shipped from Manaus. Does anybody have a clue?

They turned out so beautiful that I bought all 5 of them. Looking from the top I think I've at least one male, one female, not sure about the others...

What a wonderful acquisition. Congratulations.

Based on the size of the bucket in the photo, they look very short. I know these fish don't grow very big, but just how big are they right now?

Thanks, Eric
