I have a total of 8 adults (2.5-3.5" TL), originally purchased as wild adults, and while I suspect lucipinnis, I don't see the clear "window" at the base of the fins that is mentioned in the article here on PC. So hopefully someone that knows more than I do can clue me in. Birger, Syno321, Richard B? Please don't ask me to look for axillary pores. lol Thanks!

Sorry you already mentioned lengths...at 3 inch they would be lucipinnis.

Thanks, yes all under 4" TL. It might have been easier if they described these cats as the same species, a giant, and a dwarf version. :)
