Panaque sp. L27 ID

Post by mattfaulkner »

Bought as a Xingu but I dont think it is. He is definitely L27 but as to which river, I dont know.

Body shape is coherent with my other L27 and the dentition (sorry no pic) is similar to my other L27, they are arranged wider than the narrower V shape of L190. The tail has a few transparent 'windows' still.

I havent seen a spotty/swirly belly before with L27.

Im not too sure its 'Tocantins', I have another which I would call 'Tocantins' who is slenderer with an overall brown colour.
