lets play guess the country first. someone go get Oddball, he's pretty good. Also fruitbat (Joe), Bootzy, good thing my taxonomy consult is not here, he'd guess it and kill me

if you can guess this one, I'll take my hat off to you! I have hopes on guppy and oddball getting it! Its freshwater. If anyone can get to the country I'd be impressed

Aaptosyax grypus? Cambodia.

 

[The TRUST]

It's from Japan. It's called the HASU in Japanese or aka KETA BASS
I think the old name is Leuciscus uncirostris and now it is Opsariichthys uncirostris.


Did I win???

Are you sure? The anal fin does not look right for the fish you named.

Opsariichthys uncirostris

Maybe you are right and there is something I don't know about the anal fin. I guess we will find out soon enough.

 

[The TRUST]

it's worth a shot. My guess is as good as anyone's

Hats off to you. Where did you find the information? They're found in the Mekong delta, a asian tiger fish with a notch in the mouth. Super rare MF

Yeah, your right. I honestly don't know why I felt I needed to post that, he will tell us if we are right. I just saw the picture and something jumped up inside me a screamed "ANAL FIN...POINT OUT THE ANAL FIN!!!!"

I have my sources. But no, I didn't re-post the pic someplace else. I guess I gotta come up with a nice juicy one now...and it won't be a shark. For now though I need my sleep.
