i went to my favortie fish storre yesterday to spread the ]v[ovement and i noticed a little middle dwelling fish in the discus tank. i didnt bring my camera ....Doh!
but ill try to describe it in hopes someone can id it. its an slender fish with a brownish body and a black lateral stripe. its mouth was slightly upturned and all its fins were clear. but what got my atenention was that its pectoral fins, tho clear were kept horizontal and were shapped much like an arrowana's or african b-fly's but smaller and more proportional to the fish. but it gets even stragner. there is no price of the tank so i ask what and how much it is but the employee responds, "we got it in with the feeders", so now im thinking i might score majorly so i say ill buy it, then he says "i already tried to sell it, its too fast i cant catch it..... sorry". so im going back today to try my luck again and to bring it home, photograph it, post the pics uphere and hopefully by then i might have some idea of what it is. i already browsed through a million pictures of north american minnows with no luck and i dont know where else to look...... thnx in advance fello ]v[Fk'ers
