Yes,its a decorus.There wouldn't have been much point in welcoming guesses had I shown a side shot.
Btw for size reference, it is in a five gallon bucket.

Mmmmm, can’t really Say for sure from here but would be interested to see which way those stripes are running on the tail !!!
Alright.I was able to get a few shots this morning as it would not sit stiil long enough for me yesterday.
Though still bigger than any other decorus I have ever seen it doesn't look as big in my tank as it did at the shop.
Back with a few more photos.
First up is a shot of the smaller decorus that I've already had for a few months
Peaking out from his broken skull hideaway.Photo doesn't reveal much but I like it anyway.
Here he is after I moved the skull piece.
....and here is the newer decorus who looks downright tiny in the 180.
It's settled in nicely so far and I'm really glad that I decided on rescuing it.

Are you keeping them separate?
I started with 4 small decorous In a 75 but ended up with 1 adult. I found them to be one of the synos who don’t play well with their own type. Leaves the angelicus alone but wouldn’t trust it with another decorous.
