That last picture is awesome. Those are the biggest spots I've ever seen on this type of Gastromyzon.

Interesting looking specimen! I have one Gastromyzon with around two large spots but he's still a juvenile.

Another thing about the spots, on a typical G. scitulus, the large spots run accross the dorsal area and the smaller spots covering the rest of the body. In this fish, notice the large spots also cover the lower portions of the tail. This might be worth posting on petfrd.com.

I have two of them right now. I think I might be able to get some more in the store if they still have them. About how small would they have to be to be juveniles?
