Liposarcus Pardalis?

Post by Meganfitz »

Hi all! I think that's what this is, but not convinced...I asked on my "fish" board, but thought I'd come to the experts for sure! His fins are red tipped, which you can't really see by the pic...and I've had him for 1 year, he was an inch when I got him, now he's close to 8 inches long. Thanks in advance! :D

It's a Liposarcus, but I'm not 100% sure it's a pardalis.

I don't think that's what it is, cause I have one of those and they look nothing alike, the pics aren't the greatest, so it's hard to tell, I'm sorry. Anyone else? :D
