I was wondering about (L202), , , and . But I'm not well acquainted with Peckoltia so I won't stake any ground on this one. :-)

Thank you.

This is kind of funny! Not for you as buyer I'm afraid..

These fish had come up on a Dutch Facebook page. There was some questioning about identification.
This person was given some tips on how to make better identification pictures and from those new pictures a possible ID was given, from those pictures it was possible that they could be L080.
Sadly a lot of ignorant people posted on that thread, giving it about a 100 replies... Shortly after the post was removed (!!) and an identification was made just from one picture. I think that will have been the last fish in your post.

It is upsetting to say the least that Facebook pages seem to have become the playground of idiots... A place where not many of the real experts seem to want to go and I can completely understand....

I hope at least now you will get a positive identification on these (different) fish.
Every great achievement begins with a dream ;-)
