Awesome fish. I'm going to name it BB for short cuz I can barely read it's name let alone pronounce it lol. The first shot looks like there's a guppy hanging out his mouth

Nice knife fish. There are so many species of them, i lost count, and new ones are being discovered all the time.

Very cool Knife for sure.. First time I have seen a pic. Looks alot like some of the other macanas from SA, but the elongated tail and body shape is much different.
