Hey hey everyone :)
Here's my vieja maculicauda. He came in with a load of normal ones so I took him home cos his siblings were picking on him :(
He looks like a parrot shape with blackbelt markings.
Apologies for the photo quality!

I would LOVE to see some clear pics of him :) Looks crazy so far...
 
I think he is more deformed than SB...His spine is super high and I do not think he will make it very long :( He might though, and that would be cool...
 
I've had him for a good few months now and he has grown quite a bit. He's always out and about and loves hanging out with my big mbu. :)
Even if he doesn't live for a long time I'd rather that than him get beaten up in the shop's tank.
 
he's cute that would be awesome to have. GL and BTW i envy you for such a cool fish. that must be really rare considering that i have never even seen a blackbelt in my area.
 
Well, it's basically just a runt really. Maybe the breeders are getting more lax with their culling...
still, he's unique :)
