Fish is abt 8cm TL. Not too sure abt the origin but either Peru or Brazil. unlike the upper tail fin, FYI, the lower fin is rounded in shape.

impossible, since Hemibagrus has 8 whiskers and Pimelodella only 6The large tail extension & dark markings on the Dorsal fin also suggest that this catfish could be Hemibagrus Olroides
my bad.. I was referring to the black markings on the dorsal. The shape and finnages just refer to post #1.Redtailrob wrote:That confuses matters even more!!
The large tail extension & dark markings on the Dorsal fin also suggest that this catfish could be Hemibagrus Olroides...see here http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/he ... roides.php,
also called Dragon fin or Rooster Catfish for their elongated tail extensions.
I'm the proud owner of one, however the line running along the lateral line is very faint & not nearly as prominent as in your 1st picture.
I'd say either P.Gracillas or H.Olroides
I can confirm that the fish in this picture by me also looked like the fish in the original post, when it was smaller though the adipose might be longer in these? Also the 'females' didn't get the top caudal lobe as extended. Here is the topic showing them when smaller:amiidae wrote:Thanks for all the input.
The fish is more settled this morning and look pretty much like this - with that black marking on the dorsal.
