HELP! Eel Tail Catfish ID

Post by Breezeman »

Hey all,

I ordered a few catfish, which were supposed to be Oxydoras cats, but I ended up getting these.

Eel-like body, white tipped tail, 4 barbles under the chin.

Any and all help is appreciated, I havent had much luck in IDing them myself.

Thanks in advance! :-BD

These are either some kind of
Heptapterus
or possibly
Myoglanis koepckei
.
