L027 ??

Picked up a couple of small L002 today at LFS. Then looked in another tank and they had some juvinial L027's in there all the same markings. Neadles to say i got one as my wife loves them.

Anyway i was tinking on way home it does not lok totaly like a L027 thought it may be a L191.

Could some one confirm what he/she is ?? I know stripes ect change as he matures. He is about 2" and half long.

Thanks

You think right, it's L191. A lot of shops list or advertise L027 but 99% of them aren't.

I wasnt sure, has a white stripe at base of tail and tail its self marking on edges and clear middle !!

Anyone else think its a L191 not a L027 ?:whistle:

Easy way to remember if its a L191 or not, is to use there common name Dull eyed royal panaque. All L27's have red eye's, as do L190 but L191's do not. Cute little fella:clap:

He is cute had a L027 but tail was striped, this one hasn't but has red eyes. He is real cute though.

Pick is bad done n phone as wife took camara out thats why new fish !!! lol Also when she gets in she will see a new 4' tank in dining room cycling !!!

Thats a bargain:yes:

Ill go with what Matt and MrW say, they know Royals

L191 as they mature the caudal penducle gets darker, almost black. another possibility is L418 the shampupa royal which comes out of peru. when they're juveniles the color patterns are similar to L191 as well as the color of the eyes. as the L418 matures the tail not only gets darker it develops yellow on the tips of the tail, dorsal & pectoral fins.

L191 for me too, I have a few little ones, they all look pretty similar, nice looking fish!

L191.
Striped caudal rays = not L027.
