Chitala hypselonotus and Chitala borneensis

[King-eL]

I can not see the different between Chitala beoneensis and chitala lopis, except location.

Do you have pics?

Right now they are both the holy grail of featherbacks. Second os the Indian Clown knifefish (chitala chitala).

you know I just got some in from India right?

and I've had 2 specimens of adult ones in the past, about 25" that was about 4 years ago though

Are they chitala chitala? Got pics? There are Chitala ornata that got introduced in Inida as well.

I thought you have pics of chitala borneesis.

Only known pics of Indonesian knifefish and it's only a sketch. Crap!!! However it just gives an idea on what it looks likes. They say max size is 40cm.

Is it the same? with drawing pic?

Yes kinda looks similar. Can't say it's an RCK as it's all spots. Very nice!!! Is that featherback yours?

Hmmm...looking at TLkmDN's video on Youtube with his 3' Royal Clown Knife, it looks like a RCK will hold that irregular strip/spotting appearance. Oleoleole's pic does seem to represent another Knife fish. Whether it's C. Borneensis or C. Hypselonotus...I don't konw

Not mine, I found it on Thai website.
I will try to ask someone who answer it.
