Can you call or speak to him and find out what the name of the fish is? You really should of found out about the fish before taking it. Before you criticize someone walk a mile in their shoes. That way you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Try looking at the profiles section of this site to see if you can find it. The fins on the bottom, it is one long fin? may be a knife fish? Kind of hard to say. A very detailed description would help, a photo would be better if possible Last edited by divertran at 12-Nov-2005 07:48 Last edited by divertran at 12-Nov-2005 07:50
