Another confirmation - no GSF evident. Apparent variation among pictures is due to sexual maturity, spawning condition, immature, mature, males vs females, and probably BG vs CNBG. The eyes appear a little on the large side on some of those individuals suggesting some food shortages and or over crowding of BG. Spots of fins include the black ones - black spot disease - another parasite with snails as a host in the life cycle.
