Identity and locality
Karsten S. (L183 spawning report, 2008)
Germany; hobby report, not species discoverer
Diagnostic evidence and naming
In a firsthand October 2008 specialist forum report, breeder account Karsten S. noted initial L183 spawning around 15 months of age and 12 cm length. This reports his own stock only, not a universal breeding age and not the origin of L183.
Breeding and genetics limitations
He reported pH around 6, very low KH (~1 dKH), temperature about 28 °C, and success in wooden, slate or clay caves. Attribute these conditions as one breeder anecdote, not species-wide instructions.
