Geo ID?

[abarilot]

I'd say G. abalios but the caudal fin pattern is throwing me off. It should be more striped for abalios. I dont see the black smudge on the cheek so I'd think its dicrozoster. The lateral spot is too big for altifrons and unless you got it imported from Germany its not surinamensis.

As for care they are all about the same and they all get to about the same size (8-10")

Same thoughts I had, Abalios, because of the twinned barring on the flank (just like red heads), but, the caudal pattern is wrong. Not Dicrozoster, the forked bar on the flank is missing.

Abalios and dicrozosters max out how big on average?

They are altrifons Tocantins! Sorry for the late response.

 

[zero_go]

no spot that big on the Tocantins! but maybe G. aff. altifrons

 

[zero_go]

where is Edburress when you need him?

How sure are you Julian? they should max about 12" average? No worries on the late response bro

I'm curious abariliot why you say it's Abalios, as every other geo id thread you do.. And you also say that you see no black smudge on the cheek, so you think it is a Dicro, when that is a trait they show over others - I'm confused.
