IMG_0402.JPG Hey guys, firstly, love the wildcaught kelberis would love to keep some one day! Keep the pics coming!

As for me, I just picked up my first kelberis ever last month!

I had a similar situation where I was sold a "pure kelberi" and a "kelberi hybrid" and have no idea what hybrid it could be. Can someone ID these two kelberis for me? My initial guess was that the larger one is a bahia while the smaller one is an azul hybrid given the blue coloration and tail patterns. What're you guys' thoughts?

PS - the larger kelberis fins are a bit damaged as it's still recovering from a nasty fight with my temensis, and that could be why the coloration isn't as vibrant as it should be.

Not sure of mix but awesome looking kels. Love that black band on the head . Both have spangles coming in so you know kels for sure.
 
MorningStar MorningStar Im no expert but looks like a rio araguia imo but I am no expert. Not a hybrid.

Is that the river it comes from?
