After referring to my taxonomy expert, we've come to a preliminary inconclusive answer, the genus name is Tometes, but the actual sp. is still to be determined!

Wes, what's killing me is the clearly bilobed anal fin, and the mouth structure, and the coloration. I've seen that on really big dentics.


This isn't Frank M isn't, the same guy that essentially had kenco sticking his finger on a piranha's anal vent to feel for a pre anal spine?


Definitely NOT a P. piraya.

 

[fugupuff]

hey josh, no its not Frank M. This guy is much better, author of many books and photos of his, you've all seen!
