I was looking into getting one but was wondering if people had any extra info that I should know. I did read that they can bury, do they bury as much as spiny eels or just parts of the time?. Thx in advance

Just sharing my new catfish
I will get better pictures later as he just arrived https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLp5TCf_3IE

Any idea on this Leucistic cat?

Cheers, Eric

Idk, but he is very small, less then 2" so there is a lot of room for change. My platysilurus barely had a mark when I got him now is full Spotted

He just arrived, and is very small >2 inches. I can't wait to see how his yellow spots develop.

Think the DNA looks different in these two spp. I will consult Mols book when I get home. I think this fellow could have it's own species entry... Jools, I reviewed the Arce (2013) paper and indeed there is a Platydoras sp. `Maroni` that is distinct from P. costatus. I've created a CLOG entry for i...

Jools

Sure

Looking good

Jools

p. costatus gets 6.3"? This guy is already about 8 " and they get to about 14".

bekateen wrote: ↑01 Jul 2019, 17:37 Interesting fish. What do you know about this specimen? Catch location? No strong body stripes? ( as in other Platydoras)

Cheers, Eric

It is from the lower Marowijne river in Suriname and gets about 14" is about all I know about it

Thanks

Just sharing this awesome cat. Had him for almost 4 months
He just joined the 125 gallon.

Update, he has settled into the 125 pretty well. He will come out during the day on occasion and will cruise around all night. His stripes are so shiny it looks so cool. First 2 pics are from when he was still in the 55

Update: He is doing great, fully recovered from the damage he sustained after being chewed on my my old endlicheri bichir. He is one of the most active cats I have ever seen, he will roam around during the day and at night he swims laps around the tank and begs for more food. Here is is chilling wit...
