This guy came into a local fish store with one other as a gold spilo months ago, the other fish looks more typical serrasalmus with a concave head although smaller with the same colouration as this guy...
I done some googling in the carpark and am I right in believing this is still a spilo/Mac even tho he exhibits a pygo shape, many take on a pygo shape as they grow don't they?
I asked the shop boy if the £90 ($110) asking price had any room as they had been there so long, he continued to tell me that this one I bought I a red belly and went to get a price!?
So basically I've paid £60, either an over priced red belly (maybe ternetzi I thought) or I've got a spilo cheap?
Either way he is epic, I've shifted some fish about temporarily until I can free up the 90g for him. The tank he is in was just cleaned Inc the internal filter which is why the tank looks a mess ATM so excuse that.
He was so interactive in the store, finger chasing and biting at me I had to have him
Gotta think off a name now.
