do you say it seems to be a northern variant because of teh color or what? i find the variations in the l200 and l128 retty interesting. i got this paticular one because he his spots run the lenght of his body and even on his tail. i know that there is another variation that has spot sonly on teh upper body/head. i used to have an L-200 (my pic to the left) that had the high dorsal fin variation this one seems to have the normal sized dorsal.
