There is a variety of synspilum that have spangles. I can't remember where it's from, Rio Usamacinta I think, but it's often called synspilum sp. 'shinespots'. They were a big deal in Europe for a while. You see them over here from time to time. I think Jeff Rapps had them a couple of months ago too.

BUY THAT FREAKIN' FISH ASAP, BEFORE I CAN BOOK A FLIGHT!

Very interesting info chc. Glad to have you around...:)
 
Looks like shine spot synspilum. I was fortunate enough to raise a group of these guys a number of years back. Very beautiful fish.
 
Yes, thank you very much cchhcc. Nice to come here and learn from people with experience.

reallybigfish- He was extremely skinny when I got him but he's been eating some hikari gold and i cut up some small chunks of cucumber for him too, so he's looking a lot better now. He really liked the cucumber. I'll be getting some NLS on Thursday hopefully, and I plan on switching all my fish over to that as their staple food.
