Brazilian Brachyplatystoma sp. Flash Zebra
Does anybody know what happened to those Brachyplatystoma sp. Flash Zebras from Brazil? They are no longer available in the market. The ones on offer in the market nowadays are mainly from Peru. Any one knows where to get the Brazilian ones?

L203 and L90c
What is the relationship between L203 and L90c? Are L203 and LDA65 the same thing? If not, then how do you differentiate a juvenile LDA65 from a juvenile L203? Anybody's got any idea?
