Hi guys,
Got this from a peru shipment and have no idea what species it is.
This is suppose to be a new fish according to the importer. It's about 3 to 4 cm long. Total length.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Do you mean that these specimens are young specimens? What would the adult specimen be? Any pictorial reference?
Thanks.
