Bought as Guyuana Rhombeus at dime size, now nearing 4" approximately 15 months old.

Some better shot's of teeth and body shape. Hopefully these pics will put an end to the debate of rhom, denti or ? Anyone please chime in with your 2 cents! Thanks

Teeth are wicked and oddly shaped, saw him chomp one of my sunfire mollies in half like it was nothing, mind you this guys less then 4"!

Has been raised exclusively on NLS since dime size. Recently a combo of NLS, breeding guppies, ghost shrimp and occasional treat of talapia. Water conditions have always been ideal.


Thanks for your input! I just want to put an end to his ID! He does have distinct features that are "rhom" like but the teeth are very odd like a denticulatus.....

it looks like a fish....


lmao, i got no idea what it is but i like it! IDing the various serras has never been my strong point, i leave it that junk to you guys who actually do the research. i just remember specific characteristics that are obvious

So you're basically telling us what we already knew, outside of the lounge, you know nothing. :ROFL:
 
It looks like a Rhombeus to me because of that yellowish, goldish coloration on the anal fin and the gills.
