www.shirleyaquatics.co.uk say they have L236 and L333 for sale - to me the photos look the same fish and the predominant colour isn't white enough for me.
What do you guys think?
L236 and L333
our lfs has both (the 333's look great - the 236's are what came in instead of the 173's.
Just wondering - whats the interest in the 236's?
P.S. cant find the 333's or 236's on their site.
(although their 'king tiger' picture looks more like a 333.)
[edit] got my 5's and 6s mixed

Those aren't very good pictures!! They all look alike to me, just the color seems to be off a little...But I was told that the L333 has a stumpier body and does not have a forked tail??? Those look like they do have a forked tail?? Maybe you should go inside and take a pic or have them send you a side pic......

Give it up guys the chance of finding an L236 like the one in Datz is pretty slim. There's no way of knowing under what conditions that photograph was taken and if it was "enhanced" in any way.
A bit off topic but when I used to keep koi I had the chance to see one of the all Japan show winners in the flesh, it had been imported to the UK for sale. The colours were no where as intense as in the photos I had seen in magazines of the same fish. It was not stressed from shipping as it had already been in the Uk for about a month when I saw it and it was happily swimming around with it's chums in a 15,000 gal pond and was hand feeding. Either the fish was extremely photogenic or someone had been busy with their copy of PS.

now all my L236 have settled down, i have some weird paturned fish 
. Im moving them all into a breeding tank in a few week's, wheni get some Lizard's 
. So i'll set up a Photo tank and take some pic's and post them in a new thread as i think this one is gettin streached. There's one which i think is the closest im ever gona get to an L250/L236 or wotever they are. it's cos the Rio Iriri is a continuation of the Rio Xingu i think all the Hypancistrus from these river's are so messed up (Paturn wise). I think we will be discussing this matter for year's and year's, in old folk's home's .
