L202 vs L243

[Firestorming]

Good afternoon ladies and gents,

Noting the amount of variation in patterns,is there any way (other than capture location) to differentiate between

L243

and

Peckoltia lineola

.

I have a group I purchased from a shop closing down sale that simply had them labelled as "ornate bristlenose"

I wonder why they were closing down!

L243

will eventually grow larger and develop a longer more elongated bodyshape. It's not very easy to see this when they are juveniles though

Thanks Haakon, well if nothing else I do have patience. I'll just sit back and watch them grow (or not) they are in a 6x2x2 so they have ample room. Currently sitting around the 3.5 inch mark.
