thanks bro nic ....for helping me post those photos.
the one caught in batu cantoment is a female and this photo was taken about a year back a few days after its capture. i kept this fish since i like its gray/blue hue belly. normally synspilus will have light blue, white or yellowish belly. this fish is about 8.5 inches when caught. the other photo is a wild caught belize, which i got last week from my fish farm friends in bangkok. note ...the green face and eyes. syn usually have yellow,plae blue or white eyes.the day the shipment arrived, they were in a very bad condition, almost black, with brusies and wounds all over their body. four out nine die on arrival, so my friend got me to keep this fish just incase the rest dont survive. this is male at 7inch. this 2 photos were taken without aquarium lights ...to show the natural colours. bro nic...your syn has a very nice red.such red are hard to come by...so what did u feed it?
