Got a bunch of <i>Glyptothorax</i> yesterday, with this one sticking out.

Is it xanthic?

BTW, is this the real G. cavia?

Naw, Glyptothorax are variable in color, and the shade it adopts is sometimes dependent on the molt cycle.

After some ichthyological sleuthing, I conclude that these are NOT G. cavia. I think these are G. telchitta instead.
