ery sp peru's facts? (wolf fish)

[Fishes33]

If a red wolf fish got a metallic blue face, then it is a ery sp. peru?

How can you tell if it is a peru sp from a normal red wolf? or the collection point?

Any photos? I've never noticed a metallic blue on their faces, but I've never kept Ery. Sp Peru.

If you compare my regular Ery. Ery. (http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/f...688-Bottles-Red-Wolf-(Erythrinus-Erythrinus-)) and IndyTexys' awesome Ery. Sp Peru (http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?568038-Rainbow-wolf-fish-group-pics), you can see that the coloration is a bit different. The Ery. Sp Peru markings are more on the bottom of the fish and towards the tail, and Ery. Ery. markings are more in the central. There are some other slight differences, but for me, this is the easiest way to tell the two species apart.

Camera shy! ++++

kinda blue face (it's stressing at the moment), no pattern on the body and it has red anal fins

I don't really like wolf fish, but I have to save it from a tank full of aggressive S/A cichlids (with nipped fins)

It doesn't really look like Ery. Ery., but without a side shot I can't tell which species it may be (might not be Sp. Peru either).

Full body shot when it's all settled in.

looks like a nice peru but what fish is above it? Pretty sure a polypterus of some sort and it is hot.

Lix is probably right, but I can see traits of Ery. Kessleri as well as Sp Peru. I don't think that I've seen Sp. Peru with such a well defined ocellate; more so on Kessleri and Sp. Tahuayo. I have never kept these species though, so I could be mistaken. It should be more obvious once it's settled in.
