Keep them separate from both L333 and L066 for 6mths and see if that fin splitting etc grows out for a better look. I am inclined to think they are L333's but they've had rather a rough time. I do quite like the first one.

If you had L333 fry yourself grow up looking like that I think you wouldn't question they are L333, however if you were to put them to L066 to breed and the fry tails all come out in a C shape not forked like a L066, then all you have done is perpetuated the cross breeding.

rays fish

I wouldnt breed the second one to either a L333 or a L066 as its dorsal fin looks deformed.
2 of these fish pictured , were part of a main breeding trio, i bought them from raybanger/rayray as 333s but as confirmed by 6 mods on qldaf , they are l066 , as i picked it straight away due to the pattern and tails , thats why i sold them as l066 , a 333 tail and pattern differs greatly from the fish pictured in my opinion and knowledge, the fish im told are over 2 years old so the patterns wont change and they are around 10 cm

I would tend to lean toward 333, hard to tell, pretty average fish that 2nd 1, don't breed that. As far as mods opinion on qldaf, take that with a grain of salt, have you read some of their brainless posts they put on that site lol!
