Can you guys give me some info on v. guttulatus? I am pretty sure I have a 10 incher. I bought it thinking it may be a zonatus several months ago. Its an interesting fish. It has good color but not as good as I was hoping for. It has been very mellow towards my silver dollars and polypterus. I just added a green terror thats about six inches. So far not going over great but will give it some time. So any info would be appreciated. thanks
 
Here are a few pictures of Gutts from the Rio Mosanito. Less aggressive than Zonatum I've kept and don't really bug other species. Aggressive eaters and very active swimmers. I feed a heavy veggie based diet, but I mix it up a lot with different pellets, flakes and pea/shrimp mixes.

Thanks. I will have to post a picture of mine tomorrow. It looks similar but not exactly the same. Wonder if it could be cross. Will snap a picture tomorrow.
