Here are some of my new fish except the compressiceps, I've had him for a while. Anyways, Acestro, could you help with an ID on these Barracudas. There are 3 'Cudas total.

Cool pixtures

 

[Hoser98]

thanks.

Acestro, my guess for these Barracudas was Acestrorhynchus Guianensis, they are only about 3" long, and quite thin. That won't take long to fix though.

really cool pics and fish.

 

[acestro]

What size are they? If they're younguns, I can almost guarantee they are falcirostris...

 

[acestro]

The top pic looks a little more like microlepis or guianensis like you said. Are they all the same species? Maybe more pics!

GREAT pickups!

Yes, I second the more pics request.

 

[Hoser98]

I bought 3 of them, two from one store, and one from another. Both stores order from the same place, however, the one I bought by iteself looks more like a falcirostris, as it's nose isn't turned upwards. The other two have the upwards turned nose, which is why I believe that they are Guianensis. I will take some more pics and post them today.

From what I've seen with my isalinae, you may have an adult isalinae in the first pic (the stripes seem to be capable of disappearance with size, maybe water conditions, etc.)

More pics!

I would guarantee that you are incorrect. Hujetas ( of which I have 3) look nothing like these fish. They have a large single finned tail, and their mouths are completely different.

What's the full name of the Compressiceps?? Been looking for one of those and would like the scientific name. Thanks

No, the genus is definitely not in doubt, it's Acestrorhynchus. The species is a little trickier this time. More pics more pics more pics!!!
