I recently picked up this little guy from my LFS. All they knew was that he was CA/SA and would get big, nothing else! Any ideas on what he might be would be much appreciated. He's under blue moon lighting in the pic, I can post one with tritons if that helps.

The facial shape looks like it could be from the genus Caquetaia (krause, myersi, or even spectiblis) from South America but those blue lights are very weird. and it looks like stress barring which might disappear when more comfortable.
Unless of course its a hybrid.
 
I agree with duanes duanes looks like it could be some type of Caquetaia, although I Also think it looks kinda like a young Umbriferum. Which would makes sense considering they used to be in that genus.
 
Thanks guys, gives me more of an idea of what to expect from him. Better lighting in this pic for colour.
