yea it does to me to especially the top fin and back end of the fish....but the front dont to much but i know its a juvenile and his designs will change...im just curious this LFS has mislabeled fish quite a bit, but unfortunately its the only one around besides petco...and i almost refuse to buy a fish from that place

It's a juvenile eupterus, aka featherfin, will more than double in size and look completely different in a couple more months.
