here are some pics of my little Hydrocynus brevis.
I was very lucky to get him, he whas together with sick vittatus and he was the only hydrocynus, that survived...
and he's getting very well now! Finally he eat frozen shrimps and fish:headbang2
I like his mouth shape. He has really a lower jaw than all other african tigers:D

when he was only 5cm;

Sorry for this bad pics, but it's really hard to make a good photo of him... too fast;)
 
Congrads. I have yet to see a Brevis in person. But I do see vittatus and Goliath a lot
 
Very nice.

Here's a picture of one I had back when I had a school of Vitattus. He eventually became food for the vitattus =-(

I liked the pencil shape with it's big eyes. I have a fishing video that I'll try to upload of what I believe is the same specie being caught?

In the picture with the other ATF's he's the one on the upper right hand corner.
