Nice one Davo, so obvious now when I look at the pic!
Glad you got your ID, moomin.

just need to id the last fish

whats this one, he is nearly transparent, swims head higher than body

Davo86 · Mar 23, 2009

Does it have barbels?
Does it swim at the bottom or in the middle of the tank?

can you post a pic that includes the whole fish?

atm i'm leening towards it being a Kryptopterus species

Better pics would help, but maybe a Schilbe?
What size is the fish now?

FYI it's now been recognised that the Platydoras seen in the aquarium trade is in fact P. armulatus, not P. costatus.
