That’s right Bartian. Armin was kind and talkative. He had two bintan forms. He described one form (only females) as being more yellowish. From the other form, he had two males and some females. These are the ones visible on the photos above. I’d never seen Paro’s before (except on pictures), so I relied on his experience.
He told me that each of the two forms had been delivered by another supplier. I tried to find out what suppliers. Instead, he explained me why it would be impossible to retrace the exact origin of these wild caught fish.
They are roundtailed types of the bintan/harveyi group. I hope one day, my pictures will allow you or other forum members to identify them better.
