Pictus cat, eats small fish. Requires an adequate tank to house a small school. Best in larger tank with SA cichlids on a sandy substrate.

nope, not the pictus, it almost looks like a penguin in coloration, with spikes that look like teeth going down the sides of its back

it's a striped raphael is my guess, they also have a spotted version. i have both.
