    What genus/species is this "Elephant nose knifefish"?

    It was sold to me under the wrong name, and unfortunately can not find anything but the more black colored Elephant nose Kinifefish. This guy has more brown mottling. I will try to get a better pic. They are going for about $35 at a local shop in Southern California. Thanks, Shane.
