I have been to the GA Aquarium twice now (1st opening, and recently). In the River Scout section there is a display advertising Elephantnose fish (Gnathonemus petersii). My question is, what is the other little colorful fish in that display (kinda of looks like a cichlid)?. It is hard to describe and I have ask about it, but they didn't know. I tried to get a pic with a camera phone, but that didn't work. Anyways, if anyone know what it is or can direct me to a picture of it, it is much appreciated...

Thanks

Well, now I have forgotten what exactly the fish is question look like. I think it is some type of Badis? So if anyone can post up a picture now, it would be needed to confirm.

Thanks
