Apollo shark, Luciosoma setigerum
When we finished our lunch in Bau town, we went to Serikin town which is close to the border. I parked my car at the town, then we hiked to the border.
Long-finned Apollo Shark

Luciosoma spilopleura
SYN: Leuciscus spiloplerus
PD: A fish with an elongated, laterally compressed body. The mouth is hinge-like and turned upwards.
They grew up alongside 2 red oscars, 4 apollo sharks, 1 tire track eel, 1 upside down giant asian catfish and half a dozen bronze corys and a black pleco.
He's killed my iridescent shark, my Oscar, my Apollo shark, and needle nose gar. He now attacks my black shark..but he defends himself. I do not recommend this highly aggressive fish to anyone! From: From: Ken
