Not a Dragonfish and not a Gobi.

The image above is a baby. The baby looks cute, the adult does not. If I post a pic of the adult I'm sure you will recognize it.

The word "Eel" is in its name, but it's not actually an eel (even though it looks a lot like one).

Yes. Exactly Smile

Interestingly, Wolf Eels are not really eels, they are fish, closely related to Wolf Fish.

You're up.
