The store guys says, this is one is called "FEATHER". Its really look like a feather dead black in color (similar to black molly), and the beauty is it does not swim, in the sense it floats inside water through all corner of the tank, in every alignment, upside down, horizontal, vertical and all directions you can think of.. but it just floats... Have attached one photo of this fish.. I am looking for the exact name of the species, with the scientific name if any one knows.... I searched in the internet with feather... but I am unable to find any.... nimo 2008-06-25 Answer no. 1 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=what-exactly-is-this-fish-#2 looking at the silhouette, looks like a black ghost fish (apteronotus albifrons), google the name but I have a feeling I am right. mickey 2008-06-25 Answer no. 2 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=what-exactly-is-this-fish-#3 Apteronotus albifrons Mick is right. http://www.aqua-fish.net/show.php?h=blackghost jan 2008-06-25 Answer no. 3 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=what-exactly-is-this-fish-#4 these grow to a very large fish when adult so be prepared for it mickey 2008-06-25
