Crenicichla saxatilis Pair

[JK47]

Some shots of my C. saxatilis type pair. Anyone care to take a stab at ID since my understanding is there are countless variants of sax type pikes? Male is about 8" and female is about 6".

Very nice! I think they are true saxatilis. I believe I read Vin Kutty say that true sax have the notch in the humeral blotch that yours are displaying. No matter what they are great specimens.
