help with vieja i.d. please?

[hobo]

Thanks guys! Still trying to figure out what this dude could be haha. I'm noticing some deep black appearing on top fin, and also more of a light blue showing up through the black and also along his entire body. It looks green with the flash on, but I have a pic with the flash off as well...he was also relieving himself in the process haha

Any thoughts? When the lights were off I used to see the black barring, and now it's becoming more prominent at all times. It's slowly been appearing, but I'm at a total loss honestly. I see so many things from different vieja's when I look at pictures that I can't come to a conclusion myself haha.

Thanks for any help!

Looks like it's going to end up being either fenestratus or zonatus.

awesome! zonatus is what ive been hoping for, but didnt want to jump to any conclusions haha. after looking at more juvi zonatus pictures im starting to see more similarities to that than the others so fingers crossed!

The new pics look like fenestratus I think it's head is a little too long for zonatus IMO.

Yeah today he actually started showing a lot of red along his face so I'm thinking zonatus is a no haha.

Zonatus got black all the way to the eyes.

I'm betting 20 bucks on synspilum....looks like my juvies

That's not Synspilus. U lost already before there was even a bet.
