Madou Polypterus MFK Member Nov 22, 2013 859 333 87 Belgique May 23, 2017 #2 I lean towards Marulius because of the "spots" on the fins. Argus seem to be more "greenish".

aleelmanya Candiru MFK Member Jan 11, 2010 118 3 48 Uruguay May 26, 2017 #4 Friends, can you confirm it now? maybe they are c. striata? C. Argus are not, 100% you sure?
Madou Polypterus MFK Member Nov 22, 2013 859 333 87 Belgique May 29, 2017 #6 Honestly not sure. I can see Melasoma, Striata and/or Baramensis. Since DC leans towards Melasoma, that's probably right, he knows his channas.

Mazhar26 Jack Dempsey MFK Member Jun 12, 2016 207 79 36 40 Jun 14, 2017 #10 Still very young , in striata of these size a clear line of white belly and brown upper body can be seen which is absent here, but it might be regional difference,
