blue dolphin shark

[mitchv10]

Has any one ever herd about these? I seen them in a pet shop called aquarium adventure. Does any one know about the blue dolphin shark?

 

[Mgamer20o0]

never heard of it. even looked at google and couldnt find anything.

I have never heard of such a thing. Maybe it was just a odd name for another fish. Can you describe what it looked like?

 

[mitchv10]

i too highly doubt that that thats its real name. It was a pale sky blue the nose looked like a great white shark. The eyes were real small and looked like it didnt have any. it was bullnosed shape and tapered to its tale. it looked like a dolphin and a great white shark if you were to breed the two. it was the neatest looking fish i ever seen.

never heard of something like that. any chance you got some pics while you were there?

 

[mitchv10]

No i didnt I wish i did. It said on the tank species only. I should have asked about them.

 

[Mgamer20o0]

maybe call them up and ask about them so you dont have to go back just to find out.

i Just found it it is called a Peruvian Blue Whale, Baby whale catfish, blue torpedo catfish or blue shark catfish

AKA - baby whales as they are more commonly known as, but are not related to whales or mammals, more in the mormyrids family

Cetopsis sp. catfish? If so, they really need plenty of room, current, dim lighting, and fish and mammal corpses to burrow into to feed....they also usually kill any and all tankmates in short order.
