ID please
Hey guys, this guy posted a thread on MFK on his new catfish. He said he hasn't had much luck with his last 2 and they both died do I'm PMing him back and forth to see if I can help. Anyways he said his new cat was a "Dorado Catfish" which I'm not finding in the elog so who can identify this for me so I can further help him?

Re: ID please
Is it Brachyplatystoma filamentosum?

Re: ID please
Dorado is . That doesn't necessarily mean the fish was properly labeled, but it does look like a Brachyplatystoma from what I can tell.
