Thanks a lot, I thought that once he had coloured up a bit, he looks completely different to what he did. Just out of curiosity do you happen to know how these do in with larger predatory fish such as Bichirs. I bought a group to put in fully grown and keep my substrate clean, I think at full length ...

Hi, I have recently bought a group of 5 Hoplos, however looking at them one is definitely a different species. I will try and post pics later as I am currently in work, however I thought someone could help with just a description in the meantime?

It is around 3-4 " at the minute but it is much ...

Hi, just bought a Phalacronotus bleekeri, well what I think to be this. Just wondering if there's anyone about with any tips on care. Found a bit on the net but not much, would help from someone who has actually kept one? Also if anyone can positively I.D it

heres a few pics, his fins arent in ...

Hi guys, thx for all ur help. I am pretty certain it is a pulcher or rufescens/rufeceris, cant read my own writing. These two look very similar to me and it's had to tell as I dont think he has totally settled in the tank yet so hasnt reached his true colour etc...

This mat sound daft but I'm not up on catfish, what family are Mystus under as I cant find it in the a-z? Thx.

Thx marc. Judging by that pic u sent it looks like the Pulcher which is worrying as I wanted to keep this with some Bichirs and 5-6" doesnt look big enough really. I will look through the Mystus family now. Thx it always helps when u look at the right family eh.

Btw, very fast work.

Thx Marc, the closest I could find to it was

This doesnt have the black circles though and the fish in the phots lines along the body ae slightly thinner.

Hi guys, I know ur probably sick of helping people with I.Ds but unfortunately I have another one for you. I have been on the lookout for some kind of Pim. species for my 90 gal and I came across this guy who the guy only knew as some kind of Pim. I took a chance as he will take it back if its too ...

They are pics, not sure if I have posted them properly, sorry about quality but cam has packed in.

Haha yeah I figured it would be quite big, do you think it would be ok in this list?

6xSilver Dollars
1xConvict
1xFiremouth

and a couple of other similar sized fish. I wasn't sure if it will eat these once he's bigger. Got him for £5 aswell, thought that might be value.

Sorry it is for a 90gal 4 ...

Man you know your stuff, it was the first link I got under that search on google. Apparently a Marbled Goby is under that family.

Oxyeleotris marmorata is the name that this link says.

Thx for ur reply, I just found it on another site, it's a Marbled goby after all that. Can't find info on it anywhere though.

Hi guys, this is gonna take some explaining. I seen this fish and asked what it was and they told me a Goby of some sort. It is about 3.5-4" and has the same coloured body as a marbled Raphael but has the same kind of mouth as a Frogmouth Catfish. It also has a large very rounded tail almost like a ...

Hi guys, I'm a newbie here and pretty new to keeping catfish. I have set up a 4ft long tank 40g UK. Its inhabitants are;

2x Bn's
2x Network Synodontis
3x Hoplos
1x RTBS
1x Parrot Cichlid

There are plenty of hiding spaces and the fish are all juvenile as I want to get very young fish in together ...
