They are a bit variable. I guess some unstressed, in the tank shots from the side would help us be sure. Main thing is they are .

Hi,

The picture of the mouth you posted in the other thread shows what look like teeth. However they don't look like the teeth of Peckoltia. We're going to need better pictures to work this out.
