I will try to get some sand...

Can they shrink their head?

It seems when it try to swim, its head is longer, and when it doesn't, it get shorter! O _ O"

Lol no head shrinking.
But I still say it's a fat lap. Its not a pbb, I would put some sand in the tank as mentioned before to help bring out it's pattern this will help a lot esp to identify him

Give it some drift wood or plants to hide under and it will stop rubbing it's face on the glass.

pattern is coming back slowly, but it is still abit faded

how can I stop it from rubbing the glass? it's damaging its lip >.<"

Never knew he had a video on youtube, else I'd just post it and ID it before purchasing it

you can try having them in the dark with no tank lights for a few days to see if they color up that way too.. but it does look like a lap.. sorry dude.

There are cases of pbb having 14 finlets and laps having more then 14.

I think it's a WC Nigerian Lap now. I've seen some WC Laps that look very similar.
