that is my web space and the fish are the actual fish we are trying to id...

we have searched using every search engine available and even looked through the well know South American Eartheaters book by Thomas Weidner and have come up with 0 ... the only site we have found any reference was the jurupari project with the Satanoperca sp. "Sinuous"...

p.s. thanks for the reply


cheers

Dont you find some similarity with Satanoperca sp. "Jarú" on Thomas Weidner book, on page 244?
