L134/Lda19 pic

Post by S. Allen »

Image

That came in as L134, looking, like an average L134 variable. in the 6 months or so I've had him, he has changed dramatically in color. Now, the Lda19 discussion probably ought to be allowed to die, BUT, is there a possibility such a fish doesn't exist? maybe just a variant of L134, possibly dominant male coloration?(btw he's in there with about 5 other L134 and more plecos than i care to think about) Or just a severe morph of the species?

bad pic, I know

Hi!
It is for sure a L134 without any possible doubt...with clearly a very strange pattern but these are very variable with their pattern...

;) that's my point... I know it's L134, but is it possible that LDA 19 is not a real species, but just a variant of L134?

You could ask Erwin if we could use the pic in the cat-elog? I don't think he would mind that one pic especially if it is for this site. Would help clear up a few things. BTW, agree with the consensus thus far that the pictured fish is L134 and that LDA19 is a different fish indeed.

There's a pic of LDA19 in the cat-elog? Where? I've been through the common names, L numbers and I don't see any LDA 19. Yann, I hope you can post it soon. Thanks.
