Re: new guy in town
It might help more if you tell us which river it came from, but it does look like .

Re: new guy in town
That's indeed a striking resemblance. I wonder if Mark Smith knows where it came from.

Re: new guy in town
it was collected here
at quiriri river, Santa Catarina river, Southern Brasil!
I used to have one of these guys..
but it was a new tank, probably not fully cycled and he just couldn't make it!
This stream is not far from the sea, it is like 10 km away from a mangrove bay..
but all the water comes straight from the mountains, thats why it was cold!
