satanoperca leucosticta?

[bblovesae]

hello! today I bought a juvenile cichlid labeled as geophagus jurupari, however, I believe it to be satanoperca leucosticta. it would be awesome if someone could help me identify him/her and tell me how to sex them.






thanks!!

a jurupari shouldnt have that much pearl on their cheek CMIIW

btw, this is my small leucosticta

Hello, for me it look like young Satanoperca mapiritensis - regarding special ornament on forehead ( see my some old topic about S. mapiritensis) but also regarding bigest quantity of round spots on head. Greetings!

Hey there! I haven't considered him being a mapiritensis but that would be a pleasant surprise, thanks for your input!!
