Thank you! It has some cool pigmentation ventrally too, like in your old Nigerian lap. DMD123 DMD123

Nice piece FishBeast FishBeast ! The Black spots are present for some Wild Caught Specimens. The black markings are from the scars left by the parasite called Metacercariae. They’re harmless.

Either 15 or 16 finlets based on this screenshot but I’ll try to get a better photo. The last one I counted has multiple rays like 1-15 but membrane is joined to the tail complex. So I don’t know.

This is 15 Finlets. Last one attached to the tail is is part of the count. Many PBB have 15.

Batch from from Wetspot. Likely one b4 yours has 15 Finlets.
