This little guy got dropped into work (around 6 inches anyway). I thought it may have been a Kryptopterus parvanalis, but noone has been able to confirm nor give me an ID.
I would love to hear from anyone that has info or has kept this species.
This is not a fish i have ever seen available in Australia, guess he snuck in huh
CHEERS :)

I think this is . The black line along the anal fin is interesting, I've never seen it in all of the O. rhadinurus I have encountered.
