L600, LDA073 - Rupununi River basin in Guyana and Upper Rio Branco in the Amazon drainage.
L114, LDA007 - The majority of specimens that enter the aquarium trade originate from the Rio Demini in the Rio Negro drainage, Brazil.
More pictures will be appreciated to see the L600 and L114 differences.
I have a few LDA73. Pics for you guys as reference.

Compare it with my L600 here:

i guess im confused or maybe you are.
LDA073 is the same as L600 AKA Pseudacanthicus leopardus
L114 is the same as LDA007 aka Pseudacanthicus
cf. leopardus

Well, I'm not too sure myself. :confused::confused:
The LDA73 is suppose to be in between the 114 and the 600.
I have 114s and 600s, these guys are new additions. I did a comparison with the both of them, the LDA73 is neither 114 or 600.
The location for both the 114 and LDA are different too.

They do look different.

How big are they?
How many do you have?

The dorsal color on the edge checks
The red on the tail also checks, though it is more red then any L600 I've seen around.

I found this article very interesting and the pictures very similar.
I wish you the best in breeding them.
That pc belongs to me too. Unfortunately, till now I can't make out which group does this fella belongs to.
I've came across some Jap website Label this fella ( 80% similar ) as " Pseuda SP 1 ".
Anyway, I'm more of a collector than a breeder. Maybe somewhere in future, I'll consider starting my breeding project. :)

Interesting discussion on L114, L600 and LDA73 here. Think we will have more crosses between the 3 as more hobbyists go into breeding them.
