ALL FINS UP !!!!

I love my cb endlis, but once you get a wc specimen its a totally different fish, the cb looks nice cause of the thick body and the bold marking, but wc poly have alot of characters that makes cb looks deform. I still kept two cb endli to compare them once they all grow up. Thanks for the compliment

Yeah there are a lot of differences that I haven't noticed until recently. The wc just look more dinosaur like to me, and it makes them look healthier. I still love my cb but it's becoming more clear to me that they look like the result of selective breeding

I really wasnt going for WC specimen, but finding a cb species is challenging and most of the time its a hybrid, just example a cb endli, we cant tell where or what the parents are, it might be mix faranah endli, dabola endli or volta endli, same for cb lap we dont know what lap varient are the parent. At first i didnt really care about those stuff but once you get to learn everything and people in MFK is a big influence,at some point you gonna want a WC specimen.

These are pics of my wild caught Dabola endli (Tinkisso river), from Toyin

I love the flattened head on the wc

Also the nice elongated body

Once you start down the wc path it really is difficult to look at some of the traits of captive born polys. As an example my teugelsi is cb and has a weird head, slightly short body and the famous cb beer gut

damn really? I know it looks different than most ansorgii but I just figured it was cuz it's so small and that it would change. Got it from Bluegrass Aquatics and thought they were reliable in their id, but I guess that's just how it is with poly

Im yet again in the minority lol i still dont mind cb.... agree about the head shapes and general appearance being nicer on the wc plus they have better growth rates but still like cb
