black motoro

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
it is VERY NORMAL
 
Interesting. My female is also turning black... just like the pics above... she is 10-11".

I have a male in the same tank that is much lighter in colour than the female..

She is wild caught from peru, while he is a columbian motoro. She has less spots than him as well....

I think i read somewhere that colubian motoros are much lighter in appearance with more spots than the motoros from peru....
 
Both of mine were bred in captivity (Singapore). The dark female was bought as a regular motoro as a pup. Only after few months her color became darker. She was real beauty, also her bottom side was at the edges dark as her upper while the rest of her belly was white as snow.
