Hi all, this guy was sold to me as Laetacara curviceps, but has the coloration of dorsigera. Also, the lateral line does not extend throughout the body as in dorsigera. But, the head and body are not as stocky as I thought dorsigera was. I did some research in the Linke book to find out that information, but still am not quite sure. Can someone help? Thanks!

Mike

Nearly all of the 'curviceps' presently offered in the trade are; in fact, Dorsigera. That is also the case with yours.

Great, thank you! That is what I thought, just wanted to make sure because I wasn't 100%. Thank you again!
