ID please - leopard sailfin?
Hi
I'm not sure if I'm right on these and would love you guys to put me straight!! These are currently in a cichlid tank doing a great job!
The first is bigger, around 6-7 inches and the second smaller - 4 inches.
Thanks in advance.

Re: ID please - leopard sailfin?
You have a common plec of some species. Looks a lot like , but identification down the species can be somewhat difficult; the belly is the only way to differentiate pardalis and disjunctivus, if I'm not mistaken. This species does not have as much of a sailfin as .
