Hi!

Again not great shot... would like to see the head better!

L174 is a possibility!

L399/L400 is another!!

Cheers

I owuld say L174. It has a lot of lines on it though, which makes me wonder more.

Judging by the juvenile pictures of L66, they are still stripey even when they are VERY young. I'd be very surprised if this turned out to be L66 - but just to be sure, your fish is longer than an inch, yes?

The pic's is not the best but I believe this is L174...the eyes are to small for the other species and I have an exactly the same patterned species of L174 in my tanks.

Hi!

Yes L174 for sure, the rather smaller eye like in L316 really confirm this!!
