"Skinnycrossus" helodes

Wow, that's sad.

Compare stripes and caudal peduncle blotch with this nice healthy specimen:

Thanks. Thought it was helodes, but the pic is so bad... :roll:

So yes, skinny can take out Tigers, too. There were two like this in a tank with modestas, and another two in a tank full of fat and fiesty helodes.

Oh yeah, absolutely. I've seen tanks of Tigers where many looked similar to this.

I saw some teeny-weeny sids in the shop where I saw the tattooed (spit)fish the other day. Some of those looked highly suspicious for 'Chronic Wasting Syndrome' :wink:
