They are CAECILIAN's or legless amphibians.

wow nutz

more pics?

 

[Madding]

Very cool, but don't caecilians live in the ground? I didn't think they were full-time water dwellers.

 

[Madding]

Hmm, a little research has taught me that certain species of Caecilians are aquatic. I believe this is one of them.

If it was a little smaller I would probably buy it.

 

[wwcichlids]

I found the Latin Name for these guys. Potomotyphlus kaupii

Even though it is a long Amphibian the head is tiny.
