How about a extinct rasbora?

Ahh, well we have a winner. Its about time, but i guess the clue's only lead to a huge list of rasboras.

dana307 is the winner! The fish i Chose was the Exclamation Point Rasbora, also know as a Yeast Rasbora (Boraras urophthalmoides). I had a confusion between Boraras urophthalmoides and Rasbora urophthalma, but to clarify they are the same look here So this long a$$ game is over, sorry if it was LONG and frusterating but thats rasboras for ya.

Here are some links :

o sure, when he makes a hard one you guys go 10 pages, when i make a hard one you guys give up half way through 2 and give up


o and btw

*cough* 4. Fish must be fresh or brackish and at least occasionally available at some of the local fish stores. *cough*

Ok, I'm confused as I posted the scientific name before dana.

Eco, check out page 9. She posted'Rasbora urophthalma' and i excused it as being wrong. Well with some research i came to find that Rasbora urophthalma and Boraras urophthalmoides are two of the same as they are both synonyms for this fish.

Soulfish, now im going to have to question rule 4, i havent found this fish locally arond me, but in Singapore they have them locally(AquaticQuotient.com's forum has man locals there with this fish). How can i speak for your area also? Should this rule mean i can only chose a fish that i find locally in my area? If we went will all fish that are found or are sometimes found locally then we(or I) wouldnt have many fish to choose from. Speaking from my area at least.

Ok, I see where she asked the other scientific name, of course the ability to ask 71 different species of rasboras followed immediately by the correct answer does kinda violate rule #2 about 72 times, but she did get it first so I yield to the winner.

Finally. That one took work. Game 136 is up and running.
