Acanthicus Hystrix care tips and random facts

[knifegill]

Sorry to slightly highjack the thread but I'm debating buying an Acanthicus Hystrix. I know they're very easy to differentiate from Adonis but can anyone tell me what the difference is between L155 and L193?

I've seen both before in person but other than being told by the seller (who I don't always trust depending who they are) I'm still unable to see any visual difference between the two. ??‍
