Flash Tiger Knife vs. Brown Carapo Knife

[Miles]

Pics to show the difference.. incase anyone was wondering..

Can you tell the difference?

The Flash Zebra Tiger Knife is much more rare.. offered very rarely from fish collectors in SA..

The Brown or Banded Carapo knife is very common and offered in high numbers from exporters..

but do you have the scientific name for the flash?

 

[Miles]

Gymnotus sp. "Carapo aff. Zebra"

Their are about 5 or 6 different Carapo knive's, none of which are scientifically ID'ed.

gotta disagree. there may be 5 or 6 carapo (gymnotus) knives that haven't been id'ed yet, but there are at least 32 which have been.
