And while @ my LFS i got a quick glance and this cat fish who had a white underbelly, really long barb things and a greyish blackish body who was rather active...can someone give me a name for this?

You'll need to maintain the tank carefully to prevent it from crashing. Get a bigger tank, you know you want it  .^_^ [hr width='40%'] It only hurts when I breathe"  |

It may be one of the Pimolidae (sp.) species cats which would also be too large and active for your tank. Last edited by OldTimer at 24-Mar-2005 16:38 Last edited by OldTimer at 24-Mar-2005 16:38 |
