SA noncichlid question
Hey,
Just saw something at the LFS that was weird and South American
(though non-cichlid) and wondered if anyone on the list were familiar
with it.
They've got these large (oh, 5-6" SL) predatory SA wild-caught gobies
that they ordered under the name "Water Cows". The dominant fish in
the tank has dark flanks and belly and an ivory-colored top. They're
kind of interesting looking; the non-dominant specimens are sort of
taupe with dark-grey dots all over.
Does this ring ANY bells at all? I looked in Baensch's atlas, and
the only thing it looked like was supposedly a predatory W. African
goby. Since these came in from a S. Am. catch . . . well, does
anyone recognize the name "water cow"?
Shot in the dark. Sorry for the noncichlid post.
Is there a goby list? :)
