Hi,

think these are young lucius, the brown strpe through the eye bends downwards on the gill cover.
But bankanensis and young lucius are often hard to tell from apart

Just checked them out. They are looking real nice, definitely put on some good size.

As far as the ID, Brucki could be right. It will be easier to tell with an shot of them in the tank.

Brucki,I think they are young bankanensis
Lucius look a little different as they are young.
Look at my new children

Def.. Not Lucius.. These are the fishes we have in Malaysian swamps and black river waters.. N I often fish them.. Def not one.. African snakehead due to their belly..

Sent from my GT-N7000 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

hmm, the abscence of stripes on the belly makes me unsure but as said before, bankas and lucius are sometimes quite hard to tell apart ;.-)

But thats one of the interesting things in Channaism
