Marco_Simone SG I found this fish at one of the local aquariums. Help identify this fish and provide some info.
LancerVII SG I guess it is kind of a catfish species.. if u look closely, it seems to have long barbels..
Marco_Simone SG The fish is big man,at least 1m. And it eats goldfish,no jokes. In the huge tank in the aquarium shop,there is this freakish fish at one end and many goldfish at the other end.The goldfish dont dare to swim to the other end.
ditzy SG I'm close to 2m, I eat pretty much about any fish that my mum cooks and sets on the table for dinner, no jokes, how come no one talks about me?
finoq SG because you ain't a fish. hm yeah looks like it has barbels...and it looks like a carnivorous catfish
MLM WINNER SG I can't really differentiate these 2, but this fish is either Pseudoplatystoma Tigrinum or Pseudoplatystoma Fasciatum, both are also known as Tiger Shovelnose Catfish. Their juvenile can be easily find at local aquariums but as for adult... maybe that's the only shop, lolx http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/pimelodi/pseudopl/329_F.PHP http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/pimelodi/pseudopl/328_F.PHP
cornyfish2000 SG As someone mentioned it, it is a Tiger Shovelnose catfish. I used to keep 2 at home in my fish tanks.. My shovelnoses: And yup, those goldfishes are live feeders meant for its consumption...they have a very very large mouth when open, and an even larger stomach to swallow/store/digest their prey.
cornyfish2000 SG I think Tigrinums have narrower black stripes on their bodies, compared to the Fasciatums.. the one that marco saw in the shop looks more like a tigrinum to me.
ShutterBug SG ALAMAK! It's just a catfish. One of the many species. There are many different species in the Amazon river Don't schools in Singapore teach you all about fishes???
