Third I´m not sure.
Fourth looks like senegalus yes.

third is a ansorgii/endlicheri hybrid

I kinda figured the ansorgii was a hybrid. Are the other id's correct? First is a butte 2nd is a palmas palmas?

 

[kast]

yeah, whether it's ansorgii / ansorgi hybrid. but kinda sure that's pure juvenile ansorgii.

Infblue: I've had that poly for aprox 9 months in a bare bottom setup and it's pattern has been light like that since I got it. I'd really like to know which one out of pic 1 and 2 is the palmas palmas and which is the buettokoferi.

pic 2 is buettikoferi. As for the fish in pic 1, can you get more pics, from various angles?
