i thought i would move this here, had it in the photo section. they were sold to me as Red Head Synspilum. a male and female, just wondering if this was right?
 
ya looks like syns to me but unless they were breeding its hard to tell them apart at that age and sometimes even if there adult its hard . males and females can have a nuchal hump and they can be stubborn to breed . of course you can vent point for male ,girl round or v and o .

jay_leask that would be cool if you could post some picks after they get some food and relax a bit , later
 
yeah I agree....they do appear to be synspilum. As others have said they can be very difficult to sex but based on the body shapes, especially around the forehead area, it could be very possible that you have a male and female. Good luck with them. :)
