Hi bookpage,
Several members of the Yasuhikotakia genus display vertical stripes as small juveniles. These tend to disappear as the fish mature. This old pic from Ken may be of interest:

Thank you, Emma, for the info and picture. I thought I had found a new skunk to buy. :cry: Not that I have room for them. :lol:
