^^ Yes, we did. Jay posted it I believe.

 

[tcmfish]

Aurora you post one.

 

[AuroraDrvr]

Alright, I will have to search for a good one, though.

 

[AuroraDrvr]

Here's one. Hopefully it isn't too hard. I think I showed too much though...

 

[tcmfish]

Nice one... I'll let it go for a while.

Lamarck angel?

 

[ryan115]

I must have missed the last Aluterus. A. scriptus is probable but there is a distinct possibility of A. heudoloti for both pictures. Dorsal and anal fin ray counts are the best distinguishing characteristic

Not exactly.

That's got to be a relatively new Genicanthus species, interested to see the whole picture...

 

[SDguy]

Genicanthus lamarck X Genicanthus melanospilos. Well, that's what the pic is labeled anyways Not sure how they can tell that? Simply guessing due to location?

Cheater..

Location and Color Patterns. There have been more than a few of these hybrids seen. A couple have even made it into the aquarium trade.

Here's one for the masses. Not obscure like some of these...giving more than 5 people a chance to get it right

 

[tcmfish]

Chaetodon reticulatus

 

[SDguy]

One of my favorites.... hopefully one day we'll be able to keep them!

 

[Matt_Wandell]

Great shots of the Genicanthus hybrid, thanks for sharing.

 

[tcmfish]
