Very nice but think you may have duplicareous there, just as nice as adolfoi and easy enough to breed but very often mislabled in lfs.

Thanks gem, and bb

What's the difference and how do you tell?

 

[Gem400]

I actually prefer Duplicareous to adolfoi

The most basic difference tends to be the width of the black band, which is often thinner in adolfoi, although both sp can sometimes be variable. It is also said that they have slightly different body proportions and also some differences with the pectoral spines, although I've never sat the 2 sp side by side to compare.

I own adolfoi and are quite different to yours. There are also a good few duplicareous owners on this site and believe there are some pics in the gallery.

You have some fab looking fish there

Cheers
Gem
