Fly River Turtle. They aren't related to true softshells, are pretty mellow and are herbivores. You are supposed to keep them in hard, brackish water or soft acidic water, depending on who you ask Mine lives in with my polys and green aro. Bloody expensive too, 500.00 plus. They are somewhat susceptible to fungus as youngsters, too.

I saw this little guy once at a lfs. They were selling for $300. There was this guy who was checking it out and asked how much. When the owner replied $300, he offered to buy it for $3. I don't know how the owner kept his cool, but even I wanted to
