The "Dolphin" reminds me of a Black Ghost Knife fish because of its Body shape.

looks nice. I bet it will catch a high price though. Im not surprised that it has newly been introduced. New things are being descovered all the time in the deep jungles.At least when people deccide to venture into them though

This exact link has already been posted...:%)

Discovered in 1994, it's a relatively new species to the hobby. These Knifefish have been called all sorts of different things... It's a deepwater species of Knifefish coming from water so dark you can't see a darn thing, which is why it can be white and doesn't have easily visible eyes at all. Very cool, but ranks as one of the most expensive freshwater fish at around $300 last I saw.
