actually i got these fish few weeks ago.
the shop owners said they are orinoco
but now it is apparently not orinoco

so what they are??
some fish start to have a black blotch at the belly.

i also attach a pic of 14inches temensis.
i took a photo when turning on the light at night, so the color is faded.

please comment


thank you very much for sharing ideas.

Post #1 those are monos

Post #2 those are temensis the top one has sleeping colors.
 
How are those mono's? And why would they be "farmed" mono's, nothing about them says farmed mono, look at the back of the dorsal fin and blue and gold coloring on the caudal fin. If anything, they are definitely NOT monos as they have no black extending into the caudal fin.
 
today the same importor just introduced the new shipment of so called "orinoco"
but they said the shipment is from china
this the the 3rd shipment this month

please help ID again.

first 2 pics is the smaller size: about 1.5 inches
good condition


the 3rd pic: about 3-4 inches.
not so good, since the importors put some antibiotic already
