What type of Sailfin??

[nblige7892]

Can anyone tell me what kind of Sailfin this looks like, it was not sold to me as a Desjardini Sailfin, but curious if it possibly is one.. It is about 2 - 2.5 inches long for reference, still seems to be in the "juvenile stage"

The muted stripes (with two dark stripes at the head) and the spots on the snout look like a desjardinii to me. Do you know where it was collected?

My adult was hard to tell at first when I first got him. But now he is comfortable and his colors have changed so much! First pic is when I got him, second is him today. I think it would be easier to tell when he gets comfortable!

Definitely looks like a desjardinii to me because of the "freckles" on the snout.

Thank you! Unfortunately, I am not sure where it was collected

Beautiful fish! Love the pattern and colors on the desjardini sailfins! Fingers crossed
