Those spots will turn into to stripes with age.

I thought the only criteria for L330 vs L190, was the spotted belly. But I agree that as it grows it will become clearer which it is.

Thanks guys.

So L190's start out looking like L330's?

Here is another one from the same batch

From my experience growing both from around 1"TL they look almost identical. The only real difference I see between both is 190's have really red eyes when 330 have more of an orange eye colour.

Here are some pics of young 190 I grew out who now have the striped belly

See the belly and really red eyes.

Here is a pic of one of the young 330 at the same size

I will try to get some recent pics but I dint have much time these days.

IME 330 of all sizes have lighter eyes.
