Probably around 200mm SL. That said, I have not seen one that big, it's just a guess based on other similar species.

Do you need me to change the CSS or can you do it (maybe "planet green" rather than "planet purple"?)

I thought it was the other way around. The snouts are not acute enough to be C. delphax and they should be C. melanistius instead. Yes, I meant not "snouty" enough. Also, we should consider than more than one species might be present. The fish in the middle left of the picture looks like ...

I presume the water is filtered? I would add some Centromochlus perugiae (they love eating insects from the surface at night) or any of the smaller bajo cats perhaps as they would suit the substrate.

Nice idea - fancy posting some pictures?

Don't look like L15 to me. L103 is a Venezuelan mini Panaque, so it is a fairly unlikely import but does seem to be a pretty close match.

Corydoras delphax? Not too sure from the picture, they may also be Corydoras melanistus but the head profile looks to "snouty" (to borrow a fullerism) for me.

I was thinking of using it for stuff like AFAIK BTW LFS SL TL and so on from the acronym angle. I would also REALLY like to use it for a kind of inline glossary with words like conspecific or auchwufs etc.

Having real trouble using this menu above the cat-elog as this part of the site uses two frames under the nav fame.

Silurus,

That working now? Rusty put in a browser check for safari and if you're using that you get the static style otherwise you get the scroller.

This is going into production as is.
