Vieja maculicauda vs. Paratheraps bifasciatus

[Jason_S]

I voted for the black belt but honestly, I'd grow them up a bit and just keep the best looking specimen...both are beautiful fish and I'd tend to prefer black belt over bifas but you never know, you may wind up growin a more colorful than usual bifasc.

I voted bifas both becuase I like their color scheme better and I think it would fit in the 75 gallon better than the BB would when larger.

Both are amazing fishes, I just voted for Bif because I have never kept any before. I used to have a 12"+ male BB a number of years back and he used to push Midas and RDs his size around.

Thanks. The black belt has overtaken the bifas in votes. I agree that both are great fish for sure.

Oh con trare! LOL Bifa is in the lead!!

Either one will be a stunner for a single fish set up!
