Stiphodon ID

Post by ollyj » Sun Jan 13, 2013 4:34 am

Hello all. Just got these 2 offline. They are supposed to be male/female Stiphodon Atropurpureus. I am seeing the confusion in other discussions between Atropurpureus and Semoni. I don't see any sort of blue/green on either of them yet, but perhaps they are still adapting or still young to show any distinct coloration? At any rate I just hope they are male/female of whatever.

Agree that both look like females. If you live in the US, Franksaquarium.com sells pairs if you are looking for them.
