Should I buy lenticulata or strigata?

[Tyranno]

I got this very good offer on both species, I have seen big lents and they are beautyfull. I just cant seem to find a decent pic of adult strigatas anywhere.
Anyone got a good pic to share?
We are talking wild collected from Columbia at a very nice price, but of course I want the nicest of them.

Thanks in advance, any help are more than welcome.

Lent !

I'd go lent because hopefully you will actually get a lent. Strigata are hard to come across, and most of the time they are actually venz. sold as strigata.

hmm ok then Im going with lents for sure, dont wanna buy strigata and end up with something else. Thanks guys! Ordering 15 lents tomorrow

15! Wow, we need a photo of 15 lents together.

so how much do lents usually go for? cobras too?

 

[mr.bizzle]

i would go with the lenticulata.

Thats a pretty penny for sure. You should ask the guy to send you pictures of both, then post them up here for identification and the fun of it.

What are you going to be keeping them in? 15 lents is a lot of fish that get BIG. . .

Wow! 15 of any lugubris type pike would be a sight to see!!! I agree with Peanut, pics would be very helpful.

If they were true strigata I'd say go for them instead of the lents. The fact that strigata are nearly impossible to find in the trade should be a red flag that they are not really strigata however.

Here's some pics of adults. I don't have any juvie pics however.
