LFS misidentication?

Post by Knotted pumpkin »

I have a group of Tracycorysters insignis, well that is what they were sold as. Since getting them home and looking them up, I don't agree as the shape of the dorsal fin is different. See the attached photos. I might be wrong but would like to know. Sorry for the quality of the pictures, they avoided the camera.

Regards

Sarah
