xenacanth9's Fish of the Day

[Deadeye]

Are all candiru parasites or just a few species?

Cool fish! One of the nicest looking candiru, reminds me of a dojo loach!

I believe most if not all are parasitic.

I had two years ago Eremophilus sp. and this was not parasitic catfish...Eremophilus mutisi if i remember correct...

My MFK rank was once - "The Eternal Candiru", which could mean that the mods are pulling y leg and actually meaning "The Eternal Parasite"

“Could mean”
I think we both know that there was a 100% chance it was the latter lol

My lfs said they're are going to import the "Blue Ridge" sculpin. Those are fresh water and really cool.

Maybe you could sent to us some picture of the Blue ridge sculpin...or latin name.There are not many coldwater sculpins in Asia...

I wanted to say that sculpins i consider as not for typical aquarium fish and probably not for aquarium shops...

Description

Tetraodon pustulatus is by far the holy grail of true Tetraodon species. Like the aforementioned Tetraodon duboisi, a factor of their rarity is their environment. Obtaining these fish in the wild can be risky, and may even cost you your life. As a result, few suppliers carry these fascinating fish. A little-known fact is that they are able to adapt to relatively low brackish water.
