Really interesting how Voltas can be so pale, heres mine for comparison. He is completely settled as well, so this is his full color.

Owens. That's a beautiful black Volta. Geezus! The block pattern bandings cover more than 50% of its body. I think it's just that particular poly reacting to the color of that substrate you have. If you had 2-3 black or white Voltas in there. The boldness of marking and paleness will vary. As for my two White voltas. Tan colored pool filter sand made them very pale. The red gravel made it pop out. Now on day two with this pottery colored, black, w/some white medley. The color tone and markings look decent.
Its definitely not substrate, I am using mohawk red garnet which alot of people consider to be the "premier" bichir substrate for color. He really is just that pale.
Here is another (crappy) one with my pbb and CB endli for comparison.
Awesome species u got there! You're right about substrate. It's probably just that particular poly.
That congi is awesome
How big is he ? Is it true that they become blandish as they grow ?
He is about 15-16". Not sure, this one has better patterns than my old one I had a few years ago, will know in a few years haha. They certainly are one of the least patterned lower jaws for sure.
Bumpin an old azz thread of mine, lol... New Southern (White) Volta picked up last Sunday. All 3 came from the same batch in 2015. Photo 2 & 3 are the ones i had from this batch.
