gingerbeer Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Fins are knife fish, head is strange. I vaguely remember african knife fish being different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquaholic99 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 I got all excited when I thought it was a baby aba aba. One of the truly scary monster fish when they are big. However this specimen has a ventral fin so its in the knife fish group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant imagine knife fish ever being able to be a pest species. There were aba aba at the market the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yodapwnsasmurf Posted October 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Very cool fish! where can I get one! and that ray is a stunner! My girlfriend said "Who cares about that ugly black fish, you should get a ray like that!" In my dreams maybe..... And [MENTION=2912]goneself[/MENTION] aren't they noxious? They are in NSW.

Donny@ageofaquariums Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Aba aba attack people when defending their nest, sort of like tandanus tandanus do. Only they have better teeth and get bigger. I can see putting on a shark suit and going for a night time scuba through breeding sites being rather exciting. Not quite a humbolt squid..... but I still say you would be happy to be in armor when a big one comes for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
