I don't want to burst anyone's bubble but not one of those photos shows a synspilum. The last photo looks like a fenestratum hybrid, i haven't a clue on the first. With the blue perhaps it shows maybe guttulatum, zonatum? I think vieja are in a right mess at the moment, if you can it's best to try and find wild stock or fish from Rapps/Conkel. Shame, because they are beautiful fish.

Befor the Vieja, there were 3 Uaru and around 30 tiger barbs that i thought i would use as dithers. They never bother the uaru at all. Befor the vieja, I was going to get 3 more uaru from a different source. I think i may go back with that idea and move this hybid vieja out of the tank. P.S I have seen most of the pictures of the uaru you have in the 125gal, and must say that it is one of the reason i wanted to start a uaru tank!

Im also starting to think this has no Synspilum in it at all. i have looked at countless pictures of others and dont see my fish in any of them. The pictures i posted were all taken within a 10 minute window, just 2 had the flash on to show the different colors that the other pictures did not.
I paid $45 for this fish. Was this a good price for this fish?

thanks !!!!!!
i like the ideal of the tiger barbs... i have always thought 20-30 columbian tetra wouls look great with uaru bat at $3.00 each i just can't bring myself to do it.
