That is one of the South American Wolf Fish....probably one of the genus Erythrinus. VERY toothy customers indeed!

I agree with Joe....looks like an Erythrinus erythrinus to me.

Wow, thats amazing, you are one smart guy. I speak classroom Spanish and thats it, but I've alwaays been impressed by people who speak a lot of langs. Are you European?

 

[Billsgate]

I am European
I speak dutch, french, english, little german, little spanish, little Italian.

Back on topic, it's more complicated then that.....

Erythrinus karyotyping suggests species-complex
The South American characin genus Erythrinus may actually be a species-complex, says a new molecular study published this month.

So I think it's for now impossible to get a real precise name on that one
