Got this little guy/girl few months ago when i was buying up L002s for my colony.

It is 7~8cms.

Its colors are very bright orange compared to the rest of my L002s and i was thinking it might be a L397?





Feedback (and possible sex) is appreciated. It is faded as its a little stressed after catching out normally the black bands are darker...

i would say you have a stunning young male L002. I find with L397 that they have a white trim between the orange. cheers jk :thumbup:
PS thanks for the good photos.

Hi I can see a definate tri coloration which denotes L397 also the facial markings are a lot 'tighter' or condensed which also denotes 397, at this size possible male but could go either way tankmates depending?
