Cool fish. Are they true percs? Those are my favs. I know they aren't special or anything, but just cool fish.

If they are captive bred they will also be cheaper than wild caught. They might be true percs, but it's hard to tell.

When they are younger the black strip won't be that big. It will only get bigger as they age.
