Nymox Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 I picked up this fish earlier this week, it was labeled as a spiny eel, been looking around for a while now but I can figure out what he is. Notice the tail is different to most of these kinds of fish Ive seen. Pics are the best I could do he was in an awkward spot. I had trouble feeding him until I burried some bloodworms in the substrate. I love the pattern, its stunning in real life. Anyone know what he is?

Nymox Posted May 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 I didnt realise there were so many mastacembelus species, I think this is gunna be a tricky one. Mastacembelus pancalus has a similar tail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
