IN YOUR HEAD
they are about 2 months old, i got them at 3" now a solid 8"...they have strongly diff patterns as i saw as 3 inchers, and the head structure is diff on all three also...one has a wider ,longer, squarer skull...one is cream in color with slightly smaller head all around and rounder nose...the third one has the smallest skull, more pointed nose and a downward slope to the skull also...i did a thread before about maybe having diff subspeices, i still think there is a chance any thoughts?...idk were they came from as in witch river...any thoughts are welcome!!......also the one with the scuff on its head got it by trying to attack a chunk of shrimp on my intake screan for my fx5...

Nice tsns!
 
Well, they're not corruscans. They're either tigrinum or fasciatum but more than likely hybrids between the two. AKA your common TSN and nothing too special. "Golden" TSN still looks like a normal TSN to me and not really golden.
 
as it has grown it has lost some of the golden color also so damn...i talked to the store and the guy said there from columbia so who knows what they are...just know they are tsns with nice diff patterns witch is what i wanted...i didn't want to have 3 plian vertical striped ones, one is ok but the crazy lines is what i prefure...

None of them will have perfect vertical stripes, no species of pseudoplatystoma does. They all pretty much have similar patterns to tigers, hence the common name, hehe. And they are all different. I can't wait to get my 670 built, then I'll probably get a TSN and a juruense, but for now, a marbled catfish, 7 peacock bass, a silver arowana and 2 largemouth's are a lot to take care of haha. They aren't all in the same tank, they are all still growouts hehe. Probably going to have to cave in to a stock tank before too long. Just had a yard sale and cleared out my garage to make a lot of room for the build though. :grinno:
