Nice! I'm guessing that's not too old a specimen, given that so much pigmentation is still ...

Nice. What do you have in the way of Microglanis? Specifically, anything listed as iheringi, poecilus, secundus, or Microglanis sp. from Colombia, Peru, Brazil or the north coast nations?

Thanks. Cheers, Eric

I went and looked in the collection today and this is what we have for Microglanis ...

Oooh, nice, I will add to the site soon. Can I ask, is there a list or searchable database of all specimens? If so, I could highlight those of interest?

Cheers,

Sadly did not have time on Friday to take any photos, had to help prepare a ~600 fish loan shipment and give a collections tour. I am back in tomorrow though and should be able to take some.
For the view on the photos, at least for the loricariids, I was planning to do a dorsal view, lateral view ...

Sounds good, I will there tomorrow and will do a few. Most likely going to start out with some Loricariichthys

Hello Planet Catfish, I do volunteer work in the ichthyology department of ANSP. As some of you may know, ANSP houses a very large collection of catfish, as well as catfish type specimens. I was planning on doing a project of photographing a large number of the catfish that have not been ...

Sorry I have not been great about updating my fish. I have these pictures as well from a few months after I got him, if any of these would be better. I will try to get some new pictures of him tomorrow and will talk about my experience with him after keeping him for over 2 years now.

Thank you for all the responses, I really like the Jbl stuff the most but I have not been able to find it available in the US so I will look into caribsea and the other things.

I am looking to change to substrate I use in my current 125 gallon tank as I did not like the sand I had. I was thinking about using some sort of dark colored gravel that wont hurt my catfish or wear down their barbels. What should I look for when deciding what gravel to buy? Does anyone have any ...

So far in the ~20 months I have had it, it has been a very slow grower. Probably only has grown an inch and half in that time, if that.

I am considering buying this catfish but wanted to know if the Id is correct, is https://www.aqua-imports.com/shop/produ ... dorbignyi/ this https://www.planetcatfish.com/common/sp ... es_id=2563?

Hopefully I can get a video of hand feeding he just seems to get spooked every time I get out my phone

Awesome fish, good luck with your breeding. I am only keeping 1 syno at the moment but he is my favorite fish.
Synodontis Granulosus

Mrsomethingfishy wrote: 01 Mar 2020, 21:20 Wow!! That syno is amazing. Would literally clear a tank for him/her lol. How big is it?

About 4 1/2 - 5 inches, has been a very slow grower

Some good pictures I got of the Syno

The Porochilus is such a unique looking cat
