Was at one of my lfs today and they had longfinned lima shovelnoses.............not all the fins were long just the bottom fin of the tail......is this rare? just wonderin cuz it was only $8 and would be a cool pickup..........
 
How big were they? (I think) the babies have longer tails and the body grows to match.

Where in DE are you? I'm looking to find 3-4 for my 240, but I need them to be around 6-8" or they will be an expensive snack.
 
all limas have a long tailfin when young.
 
they were small.....around three inches........so that explains it.....thanks for the info......
