Another Syno (hopefully a bit easier)

Post by Caol_ila »

Hi!

I bought this for 2.69 euro on Valentines Day...it was labeled S.nigrita. I still think its S.nigriventris. Is this eye color normal? All pics i found seem to have dark eyes.
Its quite small and constantly swims upside down.

Yes, it's nigriventris. Not all have dark-colored eyes:
