I buy this 2pcs of baby Hoplias from upper Rio Tapajos.
Its collected by W.B.Sabby in Brazil and there exporting name was "Hoplias aimara Tapajos Red"

Now, fish are 6~7cm long and eating neon tetras very well.


Anyone knows the ID of this Wolffish?

Kind of looks like a little curu. Don't see the circle on the membrane. But that could be because it blends in with the pattern or the fish's size. The head also looks a little blunt but again the fish is small. I'd say aimara is very possible though. If it is from tapajos can't say I've ever seen a curu from there lol so leans to aimara.
