Just wanna know what I got . Not great pics but I think its possible. They are @3.5'' and eating like crazy. I bought 2 of them and a friend said that he thinks that they are small lenticulata, I dont know if they are but if so Im gonna grab all of his stock( like 6more). Im kinda leaning towards some sort of saxitillis though, but Im always wrong. They are residing in a 30g planted job with 5 cons and a couple of small bellycrawlers I grabbed cuz I thought they were svenis. Thanks for all help in advance.

Those would be Cr. sveni.

Are you 100% sure. I have a gravid adult sveni and have been looking for males for a while. If they are Im gonna buy up the rest of my guys stock and hope for breeders in like 4 months or so. Svenis are some sharp looking pikes when they mature.Thanks for reply. Can I get a second to that?
