Snapped this today while watching P. cheni sex-play 8)

This particular fish is far more like a Gastromyzon scitulus, but does have pale whitish-blue in the dorsal. Not 100% which it is.

Nice fish Martin. I see fish a lot like this at a store in my area but they are always sickly looking. That scares me :shock:

Superb!! 8)

Do you have many others with 'larger' spots just past the dorsal fin. I have a couple with large spots and some with small dotted ones. Hmm...

Actually, most of mine have the bigger dorsal area spots. I do have at least one with tiny spots though. I think they're a bit like Gold Nugget Plecs.....different sized spots.
