"White Tip" wolf fish... ID?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Holy crap, those are some beauties! my guess is honestly not even erythrinus, im leaning towards more hoplerythrinus, looks like it could be closer to the gold then the others. Do you need some sort of special license for that? my mom has a wholesale license for her buisness, i may be able to get one through that. depends on how many i would have to get haha im sure some of my buddys would want one.

Either way, id imagine its either a hoplery or ery sp. maybe never seen before. Im sure as hell i havent seen one like that. pretty awesome find rob! Gonna have to grow one out to see its max size, aggression level etc
 
im fine with kessleri :) and from the photos ive seen the t rivers have a longer and thinner body than the other erythrinus. This may just be the individual specimens I have seen on posts but these look to be longer and thinner than other wolfs I have seen at this age. So +1 on t river i.d and my kessleri looked different from these at that size

also the green stripe on the gill fin seems to be unique to these. I may be mistaken though

not being rude but if you do have one i would love to see some shots. Soooo hard to find a picture of a adult I have only ever seen one and idk if it was even t rio it just wasnt anything else I had seen and was labeled as such.
