[ermgravy]

im not 100% so what you all think?

 

[Loubard]

Is this the one from diskusmann?

I don't know if it's a Hydrocynus brevis (never seen one) but it doesn't look like a Hydrocynus vittatus.

Calling fugupuff!

 

[West1]

I would have to say Vittatus

Brevis has a more round head

Right is a Brevis,Left 2 is a Vittatus

that fish is the dwarf tiger, whatever you want to call it, most likely from nigeria. formely known as hydrocynus forskalli. short head, dark stripes., that's my educated guess.

 

[channarox]

i thought that forskalli and vittatus were now the same fish?
looks unvittatus to me.
but i have no idea about brevis.

 

[West1]

I know little to none about Brevis, not yet Forskalli.
Mine was just a guess

Well I will go with Fugu... haha even if i got both of them before I also dun know how to tell between Brevis & Forskalli.

In Japanese mag, I seen the same fish and they name it as hydrocynus sp.

And I some say it a hydrocynus Brevis...

ブレヴィス[FONT=&quot]・[/FONT]タイガーフィッシュ
Hydrocynus brevis


タイガーフィッシュの代表種であるHydrocynus vittatus、
入荷の少ないHydrocynus goliath(ゴリアテタイガーフィッシュ)に次ぐ
第三のタイガーフィシュです。
最大全長80ｃｍ、8ｋｇの記録があります。
前２種とは側線部下の鱗の列数が2列でなく3列あることが判別基準になるようです。
光線によりエメラルドグリーンに輝く鱗が美しい種です。

Anyone know what the above mean in jap? For my guess is ...
max size is 80cm approx 8kg haha the rest i dun know.
My other guess is it Brevis might be a cross between GATF & VATF.
