Wow, they are indeed some of the best looking lents I've seen yet. Love the thick, prominant barring and the concentration of spotting on the face. Gorgeous for sure! Looking forward to seeing them progress and get even more attractive for you! :D

Thanks for sharing the pictures! Grey needs to update his pictures of them. Perhaps you should offer to let him use the pictures you took? ;)

Wow these are so nice. I'm tempted to order one but at a max size of 15" he probably one wouldn't play too nice in my 72G :(

You need to post some updated pictures of them in here man. Curious to see how much they have grown and colored up in the last ~ month. :D

Glad you are loving them. I TOLD you you would love them!! Of course those sp. 'atabapo I' would have been just as fun. I think these guys are a little more rare though. ;)

I'm starting to wonder if we got different variants there eggie, even though we got them from the same batch supposedly. I mean ours are close to the same size, yet showing fairly different coloration. You're have more thick bars and spangling on the face, mine have more rosettes and less bars.

Perhaps they are at different stages. We shalt see hmm? Loving the pictures! Keep it up!

Comparison of our pikes. Really am starting to believe we might have two different variants after all. A little annoying cuz I thought I was going to be getting your variant, but oh well. Hahaha. I guess we'll ride it out and see what they turn out like. :)
