I'm pretty excited about this purchase. I went into Petco the other day to pick up some filter inserts and found a little treasure. I'm not a big fan of the Petco quality of fish, but I think I lucked out this day.
I saw they got a shipment of Leporinus affinis (incorrectly marked as Leporinus fasciatus) and one of them caught my eye right away. Upon closer inspection I realized they must have sent a desmotes by accident and the price tag was $6!! I scooped it right away and put him in my 30 gallon grow-out tank.
Here are some pics. I apologize for the picture quality...my camera sucks.
