IronMonkey Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Its neither to the best of my knowledge... closer to a Synspilum, but my guess is its crossed.. Fennestratus have a black band that goes from the base of the tail, to mid stomach and do not develop blue on the face... and Zonatum dont have all that red in their fins... and Zonatum being very rare in Oz, its highly unlikely... Hartwegi is another possibility as they have more random colouring... HTH Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euan Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Juvenile fenestratum. When it grows you can know for sure if it is crossed or not. Definitely not synspilum, hartwegi or zonatum. I have all four, once you see them together it becomes easier to tell the differences. By the way argentae are here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
