any tanganican syno. looks like this?

Post by worton[pl] »

Sorry no picture yet :]. I saw a syno which looked like one of tanganican species but he got spots on white part of his dorsal fin. He got also two black stripes on caudal fin and also a white edges of this fin and pectoral fins, he was about 10cm long any ideas what this can be? Ah body colored in green-grey with small black spots.

That doesn't sound like a Rift Lake species.

he is swimming in tank which is placed too high for me (im shorty :P). I'm sick however so cannot buy him for few next days :]. I will ask if it's possible to take a photo of him before buying :). It looks pretty "real" he got a caudal fin like petricola and dorsal like granulosus but white is less white :] and got few small black spots.
