This fish is larger, flatter, & looks nothing like ten other L104 i have. Anyone have any thoughts ?

Ty mate. It has been considered & also the possibility it's a variant. I have 10 maccus & these two are not them imo. To look at the fish they are nothing like any L104 i've seen.
L206 was suggested but later discounted.
I wonder if Shane has caught or encountered this panaque ?
To see a tank full of L104 & these together , i think anyone would agree that these are not the same fish. They are not at all shy like my clowns & eat more veges with tank lights on no probs.
Thanks for kickin' off for me S.

From all the information I have read the L206 is a panaque cf maccus and the photos of L206 I have seen look just like one in your photos. I don't see how L206 could be discounted.
