Frontosa ID

[rallysb1tch]

This guy is much more blue than our other frontosa and his nuchal hump is shaped differently. Does anyone know what strain of frontosa he might be?

hard to say, can you get a full body shot?

I don't believe it is a Zaire variant, as I don't see the Zorro mask around the eyes. I also think that if you own a Zaire frontosa, you are going to know about it ($$$). My guess is that this front is a Tanzanian variant- most likely Mpimbwe. It is a little hard to decipher the strip around the eye, but it looks like it may wrap around the top of the jaw. I agree that a full body shot would be more helpful for ID. Check out this link for identification of the different varients of fronts. http://www.cyphos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11854

I think it's a Mpimbwe as well. Just a guess though. What kind of lighting are you using?
