Yes it's a Tyre Track or Whiffle as she is known as

To dredge up an older thread:
You guys seem to really know your stuff about BGK's--I'm new to them, but have got them under my skin now!!

One question:
Do you think a BGK would do well in a Malawi Rift Lake environment, or are pH/kH/gH levels too different?
Thanks, and the photos are awesome! ~r

The Rift Lake biotope would not match the environment for the BGK. The pH would be high, since in South America, with all the rotting leaves and driftwood would make the water acidic. But you could be the first to do it

They are very commom here in brazil (and cheap). People use them like life bait!!!
The biggest one i've ever seen was about 20in!! And It was completely the same as little ones!!

That ruin my day.

That spiny eel looks like a tiretrack to me. My BGK is about 7" right now. Eats out of my hand. I named him Ginsu (yep, after those silly knives).
