Ich habe das vor 2 Tagen bekommen sieht etwas künstlich/bemalt aus? Kann mir jemand mehr darüber sagen, wenn es echt ist?

 

Translation:

 

"I received this 2 days ago does something look artificial / painted? Can someone tell me more about it if it's real?"

Welcome to the Forum.  :)

 

It is real, but has had paint applied to the body, vertebral column, fins and around the head.

Much better can be found available online.

 

These are mine of the same species:  Lycoptera davidi
