Jag cats - L.Oncinus

[Richard B]

They always seem popular so i thought i'd let people know they had some at Bicester (UK) for £26 each, 4" TL last week (World of Water). Nothing much else to report as it was a flying visit

That's a decent price Richard, especially as I haven't personally seen any 'true' ones for sale for a long time.
My small one is growing much faster than I expected, and your female is much less active than my original one, though can always just see her face peeping out from uder the bogwood. It's amazing how many cats can fit under a piece of bogwood! I keep trying to get some photos - will keep trying because, in case anyone didn't know , these are one of my absolute favourite fish!

real Jags were soooo scarce 18 months ago & then boom, loads of places had them, (BAS, TWA, Amwell & others) - some are still to be had if you get about a bit, (as are morrowi). There is one on Aq. Classified at the moment for £50 which looks a stunner.

Sounds like I need to get about a bit more then!

L. ocinus have been regularly available lately in the USA at 3-4 inches at comparable or lower prices than the UK.
