ID on gymno

[clgkag]

These guys came into the lfs as a trade-in and nobody there knows what they are. I think I know, but wanted to get second opinions. The tank had them labeled as Rio Olima. I realize they meant Rio Olimar as the collection point, but they say it is their name. Anyway, these juvies are a couple inches, maybe just a bit more.

to my untrained eye they look like G. Labiatus

^^ I agree. Most likely G. labiatus but they are still young so hard to confirm ID

Thanks guys, that is what I thought they were. Still new enough to gymnos that I wanted a second opinion.

Cool, thanks. I am glad I picked some up. Is there any way to sex them this small?
