I have approx 18" giraffe catfish free to anyone who would like him. He is very healthy and quiet and lives with rays and arowana and knife fish. My rays are showing signs of breeding and need more room in the tank so will have to re-home him.

thanks for reading.

yes the male goes with the eggs as he doesnt come out of the shell and he fanns constant until they are all out...for days after as well...he seems to be a good dad but i say hes old he is still fairly young for a dad...he has large bristles though and seems to be a caring dad to the young...maybe ...

No the eggs are laid but it is the older male that always tends to them the other male doest realy bother as its the older males shell and the younger male darnt go there !!!! the older one would not be amused.

Thanks i will keep that in mind if he doesnt appear at the weekend. How we worry about these little tikes sometimes.

Thanks

Dawn

Yes thanks i may try that. I am trying to keep a close eye on him but he is so well hidden i cant see him at the mo and dont want to scare him by making him come out. The shark is fine and i will test water each night. He looked completely scared to death when i put him in the tank so i hope that a ...

Thankyou for your reply. The reason I have put this fish in my tank is that he is small and the two fish together dont produce much waist between them so i can keep control of the water until it cycles and these are the only two fish i wanted just now instead of buying fish i didnt want because they ...
