Fish looks pretty beat up, but I can see where you are comming from. Fish also looks rather thin. I was thinking of another species similar in appearance, but I can't put my finger on it.

So what does that mean? the picture on fishbase dont even look like the line drawing. Differences in shape of dorsal could be sexually dimorphic thing?
How bout this pic of one.

The Dorsal Spine is still quite strong there... just looks to have been bitten off. Your right however that it could just be a morph of sometype related to sex or age... just as I mentioned previously ... you Pain youwayne the pain;1691436; said:So what does that mean? the picture on fishbase dont even look like the line drawing.

Yeh that definitely been biten or broke in some way. i was looking more to the different shape in adipose and distance between that and dorsal.
Oh, i must of missread your post, as i didn't see anything on sexual dimorphism
