Hello, I've been lurking around here for quite some time now, but this is my first post here, so welcome.
Recently, I bought some pencilfish. They were sold as N. nitidus, but I couldn't get a good look at them in the store. When I put them in my tank I realised they don't look at all like nitidus, they are more slender and don't have almost any red coloring. When I compared them with pictures online, they are most similar to the N. cf. minimus from Colombia, which I found on Tom's site. Right now, they are about 2 cm in length and are still quite timid, but I managed to take some pictures of them. Could you help me identify them?
Best regards,
Marcin.
