dude I wish I could take a better pic, he is 4" . The only time he comes out is when there is food in the tank, I try lots of frozen and fresh food, while he eats it, nothing makes him happier than a danio. I have pics of when he is completely out of the plants, but he is so fast it blurred the camera. I looked on the brandti info on this site and it didnt look like the similarities
thanx for your info

A photo can be deceiving regarding live colors (photo color/flash). The case on this fish check out the placement of the first ray of the anal fin, draw an imaginary straight line up to the dorsal fin first 3 or 4 rays. You will see that the anal fin is placed further forward than any other Serrasalmus species. Hence, S. brandtii.

4"?!?!? I thought he was way smaller than that - deceiving indeed

Either way, he looks beautiful

thanx guys, I have had him for quite some time I bought him at the lfs for 25 when he was 2" and now he is 4" he is a very shy fish. He may not run when I approach the tank but he def doesnt like coming out, during the day at least. At night I have seen him freakin out swiming around I know he is not nocturnal but he is definately dfferent in behaviour
