A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Anabas testudineus
This one was not fully grown as those are much larger. Dorsal fins spiny.
Just where the planned township ends are ponds. I brought two of these home in a jam jar and later allowed these to swim in a glass bowl but that did not photograph well ...they kept jumping out as you can see in the first two photos...petal encrusted and all.
Taxonomy: http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/16654... May be this is not one species!
