Satanoperca leucosticta

[dent20]

I've never kept Satanoperca leucosticta before. Is it reasonable to expect an adult to be this colorful with both the red and blue coloration? I've seen a few like that on the web, but not all.

I've found youtube to be a much more reliable source if you're looking to see actual coloration of a fish. Video seems harder to fake - no photoshop & you can tell more easily what lighting is used.

They have a decent size ranged, so their coloration will vary depending upon where it's caught. There is no way to tell if you will get one like that or not.
