yeah i dont think ill be keeping this rio meta. he doesnt have the green color that im looking for and you could already tell if he's gonna be a stunner. in fact, with my recent downsize, most of the fish i wont be keeping. just growing them out for the fun of it.

the rio negros would have to turn out butt ugly for me to get rid of though. doesnt look like thats gonna happen

and yeah, my rio negros compared to other orinos have a very "compact" look. very stocky short body with a short snout

Nice, they look really close to my RM's. The only difference is the RN's have less spots, and more solid striping on the horizontal bar.

see yours are like mine, where they have a lot of markings in between the 3 circles and the line going all the way to the tail. you think this will go away eventually? seems like they will stay like the one in my avatar

hopefully will go away.
