LYNDYLOO Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hi Shane, I have just rung Wet Pets in Palmy North, they have given me the Scientific name for the Leopard Fish. Got to admit it sure is a mouthful. LOL Leopard Fish = phalloceros caudomaculatus :roll: :roll: Now aren't you gald u dont have to pronounce it. LOL :roll: :roll: Maybe try Googling that and see what u come up with. Good Luck :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: Lynda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 They are not the same as mosquito fish so don't let those common names confuse you. I have only ever heard them referred to as leopardfish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
