There is one with a curved snout that will only get around 15 inches. Help me out anybody not very good with scientific names. The 6 band distochodus can get 30 inches and lose their color to a pale grey so I'am told. The other one keeps its colors. Perhaps someone will chime in as I don't have all the info on these cool looking fish.

Disto. Sexfaciatus can get quite aggressive and are know to nip fins and pluck out eyes. In my experience ive had a peacock bass killed and several damaged fins.
