***L399/L400??????***

Post by Lnumber »

Hi, can anyone help ID these (5) fish for me. I bought these fish when they were about 2.5-3 inches, and its been about a year and now they are around 3+ inches. They all look very similar, one is a little darker and they have the same head shape, tail, eyes, and body length. They all have similar patterns and behavior and they all love eating bloodworms. I asked my friends and they said mines were are L400. In the gallery on here at planetcatfish, my fish looks exactly like this one:

Hi Lnumber,
I agree with your friend.
I also think these are L400.
I have some L174 myself, but they look quite diffrent compared to yours.

very similar to my breeding group of 174's... but they are true L399/s-400s to me.. also check out the L-287's they are the new 400's now and they look just like the 287's...
