NEED ID ON PIKES

[bigspizz]

Don't Vens have yellow eyes?

Not true.

My strigatas are on the right. Maybe someone could post adult pics of some venz for comparison.

 

[cichlid fiend]

Not true.

see it might just be that i dont see many adult venz but if i got asked/ my first guess on ur pic i would a said cr,johanna

 

[its_an_obsession]

johannas dont have the blotch behind the fins.

easy tell between johannas and vens is the spot on the tail or lack of one. johannas dont have one and vens do.

chief mojo... u got any more pics of the strigatas. id love to see them

Would any like to buy my 2 Venz pikes? I'm trying to down size my tank for breeding space. My F1 is about 4" and my F0 (wild catch) is 5". Please let me know if your interested. Thanks.

strigata have a more pronounced spot behind the opercle...can be tricky tho

Strigs have a distinct humeral blotch. Vens do not.

 

[its_an_obsession]

keyword DISTINCT right. some of the vens show a faint humeral blotch
