My zonatus/sp coatzacoalcos

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Hey Alden nice fish. I'm torn on what they are though. I have both a couple of these and a rio carolino(sp) coatzacoalcos. There are alot of similarities for sure but I'm not 100% convinced they're the same fish. I almost think that I need to get them in the same tanks and see them side by side. I think your looking at a great looking fish no matter which it is though, judging by the nice coloring they have at such a small size.
 
I agree with DanG13 I was questioning whether it was a zonatum. But still a great looking fish at such a young age and not really all that common.

Thank you for all of your comments. I'd like to see your pics too Scott. Can you post some of your true coatzas? If you can get them in the same tank and post pics to compare that would be awesome. I didn't realize you had picked some up too at Marcs. That's cool!

I agree. The red band across the snout seems pretty noticeable. I wish mine had that. :( Here is your vid:
