Re: New 7 inches L27C 'TOCANTINS'

Thank you.
Other fish get along fine.
  I do not see the fish touches the plants, once he started to eat, I'll take him to another tank I have.

There are:
190-20 cm
190-6 cm
190-14 cm
27 Tocantins - the one you saw in the video
27 Tocantins - 20 cm
330-24 cm

Mark, sorry my friend but I don't have pictures right now, I'll take pictures soon.
It's another L27 tocantins, a smaller one.
The bigger one is about 20 cm, and this one is 15 cm.

Panaque ID

Hello everyone,
I bought this fish today and I'm not really sure of it's identity.
I think it's L418.

Re: L190 or l27 ?

The fish is indeed P.Nigrolineatus.
I looked at the teeth, it is L190.
Anyway, I'm not disappointed or anything, really not, I think this is a beautiful fish.

Would it be possible to get a photo of the mouth/teeth? That should settle the Peckoltia vs. Hypancistrus at the very least. Then we can start the discussion as to which species it is...

Hey everyone, sorry for the delay in response.
Thank you Shane for trying to identify. ^:)^

After some inquiries, the fish actually came from Colombia,
at least that's what they told me at the store where I bought the fish.
The fish is similar to L309, I hope that this is indeed the fish, I think ...

Re: Liosomadoras oncinus New owner some advice pls

Jaguar catfish, no doubt an amazing fish.
My Jaguar is located in a 500 liters tank with Red Eye Tetras , he does not touch them.
I feed him very well, bloodworms, earthworms, Tetra Bits and other foods, so the jaguar is not hungry most of the time.

This is my Jaguar:

Re: Ancistrus ID help

Hey Mats,
Tomorrow I'll try to see where the fish came from.
If I'm not mistaken, the fish came in a shipment from Colombia, but I'm not sure.

Only by the appearance of the fish (not including the location), which Ancistrus you think it is?

Re: Ancistrus ID help

Similarly, because the orange-striped fins.
But, because the spots on it's body that do not resemble at all the spots on the Rio_ucayali,
I think it's not the same fish.
The fish was sold under the name L182, but it's not L182.

Thanks anyway. :)
