Vieja Synspilum

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
This to me would be one of the ultimate fish to have. Amazing colors!

yeah it is. i look at that video a couple times a week. awesome fish. the bifa in the video is awesome, too.
 
It's a bifas, with the characteristic red dots and full horizontal bar. The vertical barring appears to be just lighting. It will turn out to be a beautiful Vieja even though it is not a syns.

whaaaaat?? Might as well say it's a Black belt too then.
 
Got a couple more pics, worse quality than the first one because he/she won't stop moving..



 
Mine has vertical black bars and its head looks longer than yours.. Looks alot different from yours IMO.

I agree. The vertical black bars are more than shadows, meaning that at the very least it is not pure bifa. I'd lean fenestratus but perhaps something else (like bifa) given the shape. I don't see synspilum in it at all. Either way, it's a good looking fish, and hopeful it will develop the colors you are expecting or hoping for.
