Hey guys/gals. Once again I'm calling on you for pictures. I'm doing another article on species ID and I am in need of pics. I've never owned a pure specimen of either of these fish, so thats what I am looking for. If you own either of the two, please help me out!

I am looking for Juvenile pics (~2 inches), Young Adult pics (~ 5-6 inches) and of course Adult pics (10 inches +). I need good profile shots if you have them, side shots. I'm looking for good resolution. These guys are hard enough to ID as is, and if you could provide the breeder/collector you got them from that would be great.

Any pictures I use will be credited to you, and I will email you a copy of the article once its complete.

Thanks for the help!

What a beast, first pic the hump looks fine but second pic looks kinda weird, must be the angle or something.

Nope thats how it looked, his nuchal hump never really grew right it would get huge but in a upward fashion instead of protruding forward...:screwy:
 
Old pics. I don't have the Red Devil anymore but I should take more pics of the Barred Midas. He's bigger now.

RF that 2nd pic reminds me of the chubby kids face on a rollercoaster lol.
 
Guys, these are all great pics, and examples I'd love to use, but I do need some sort of verification that these are pure species. Any names? Rapps? Etc?

I just don't want to feed the confusion by posting fish without true I.D.'s.
