So my dad bought a fish home from an Asian food store and I just woke up and was a bit sleepy so I though it was a catfish and felt bad for it so then put It in a 17 gallon bucket with declorinated water and realized it doesn't have whiskers then I saw a spot on its tail like a bullseye snakehead or could in be a bowfin? Either way it's gonna die so just wanna know what it is?

Does your Asian food store sell them live? Right out of tank, like lobsters?
 
I cannot see the OP attachments. I see Oddballs nice layout just fine.
 
Oddball can see anything that needs ID'ing.
I think bowfin are pretty awesome. I would keep them if they were available to me. I'll just stick with my Channa Micropeltes
 
I cant see them either. Hey let us know how they taste - I catch these all the time and was told they weren't good for eating - never 100% believed it by the people who told me though
