I bought 4 of these guys from petsolutions.com as endlicheri, but they look like delhezi :(

They are about 2.5 inches. My quarantine/ rearing tank light puts out a slight purple hue, so they look more grey in the photos. They are actually greyish brown.

Anyone able to id them?

I don't know what they are; but they are not delhezi. Delhezi, or at least nice ones, do not have a messy pattern like that. Very crisp, clear black bars.

Well, that's a bit of a relief. Still, their lower jaw doesnt protrude. Is that something that develops with growth? Like I said, these little pups are tiny.

Damn, are you positive? That really sucks. I want to return them, but thats an insane amount of stress to put on the fish...

I ordered endli... I wanted endli... bleh. I can get 6" delhezi for practically nothing right now, just dont want them.
