Hello!
I was about to bring home a baby bamboo shark my LFS ordered for me. I’ve worked with them many times before, and so this baby looked a little odd to me. They say it’s a brown banded bamboo shark… but at this size (like 7 inches) they’re usually much darker striped. Also the head seems somewhat more flattened, nose barbells a bit longer and larger pectoral fins.
Anyone know if it’s just an odd looking one, maybe sick, or if it’s a different species I’m not recognizing?
