Just joined this superb site, which I have often referred to for information. And to be nosey about whats going on in the catfish world. I've kept tropicals for over 25 years with a preference for catfish. First tank (5') has 5 gorgeous snowball baryancistrus LDA33 - biggest is around 6", they live happily with 5 glass knives and a satanoperca daemon. 2nd tank (4') has 3 jaguar cats -L Oncinus, all a good 7" and stunning, they live with 3 tatia galaxias between 3-4" and also 3 indian gouramies (they had to go somewhere...). 3rd tank (3') has 5 Corydoras davidsandsii, 1 Cory Imitator, and 1 Cory weitzmanni, plus a female emperor lacorteii tetra. 4th tank (5') has 8 Cory Robineae, 1 stardust? ancistrus (don't know the Lnumber), 4 male lacortei, 1 wild ramirezi, 6 flagtail dianema, 4 ottos and 8 glasscats. 5th tank (2') has 4 tatia reticulatus and 1 tapajos zebra L134.
Longterm I want to try breeding the Lda33, the Jaguars (stop laughing!) and the Dianema. Over the next few months the C Davidsandsii and the Lacortei emperors - a pretty tetra you don't often see. And maybe the tatia - in fact the galaxias were spawning in the LFS.
Well that's me..... I will have questions to ask and hope I can contribute. First is - does anyone want to sell to me their fully grown jaguar cat???
