kindof looks like a tiny lima shovel nose, but its hard to tell. Can you get a pic thats a little more clear of its side?
 
Looks to be a very young tiger shovel nose that hasn't developed much color yet. How big is it?
 
just 2-3inches.

hard to get the photos as he keep hiding...
he has spots on his body...
 
degginetly a shovelnose, thats all i can say at the moment
 
start with blood worms, shrimp pellets, chopped beefheart even. That fish will grow fast, eat anything that will fit in its mouth, and get MASSIVE :grinyes:
 
I got a two incher a month back and feed him blood and blackworms to fatten him up. them I stuck him in a 55 and he started to take pellets from the surface. Now a month later he is about 6in and a pig.
 
mine keep hiding and i never seen him eating anything....
forever swimming at same spot or lying on the gravel...

i only feed sinking pellets for pleco and frozen worms for my fishes...
leftover will be their food ahaha
