[TIMY]

Just received this morning.Took some picture to share,would like to hear what L27 this piece belong to ? Xingu or ?

I would need to see a mouth shot to be 100% but I would say xingu.

You lucky sod, it's Panaque armbrusteri or L027 Tapajos if you prefer, the fabled 'Thunder' Royal.

The main difference from Panaque cf. armbrusteri 'Xingu' or L027 Xingu is the flatter body profile and longer snout.

Matt does it not look more like a Panaque cf. armbrusteri`araguaia ?

That's what I think it is when comparing pics from a side shot.

Nope

The Araguaia have a body profile similar to Panaque nigrolineatus L190, like the one in your profile picture.

Have a look at these two posts of mine on another forum. Thanks to some brilliant pictures you can see the four main L027 varieties, Xingu, Tocantins, Araguaia and Tapajos.

Nice then the pics on PC are incorrect which my brother mentioned but was told he's wrong lol

The only thing I find odd is my guys teeth are starting to look different. The top row is becoming joined slightly.

I know the 2 you mean in the Araguaia profile. I read that the pics for the Araguaia and Tapajos are messed up.
