Male whiptail ID

The bars on the tail do not continue onto the underside.
The dorsal fin has a small extension and the caudal fin extensions are about 1cm bottom/3cm top.
TL is 12cm.

This is the male of a pair that have just spawned.

Hi!

Take a look at these pictures:

The catfish shown on your picture looks similar to them.

So long

Thanks Mathias, the picture in the catelog is also spot on.

Even the eggs & fry are the same:

Fry coming on nicely at 2 weeks old:

The spawn was on the glass btw which I believe is further proof that they are the LG6 whiptail.
