Just like what the topic says, there are fw fish out there that makes
you wonder why they are fresh and not salt. Really nice datnoids makes
me think that they could be saltwater, MBU and Fahaka Puffers too.

Any others? I have a few that i can add off the top of my head but ill
just mention them if nobody else does.
 
Some Discus could put a few saltwater fish to shame, I've also seen some really nice bright Electric Blue Lobsters.
 
American eels, oh wait they are transwateral, oops. But I could see butterfly fish hanging out in a coral reef.
 
fire eels? they look like those moray eels from the sea..

ya, the well know freshwater puffer and also those giant freshwater stingrays do look like creatures from the deep unknown. hehe..
 
Agreed some african cichlids and discus wont be out of place if its neighbors were saltwater . What else can we add on to this list?

Some fw eels def look like they belong to sw.
 
Hah...what about those fantastic FW stingrays that alot of us are owning...alot of non fish keeping dudes are always surprise to know that there are actually FW Stingrays...
