There's a new store in the Netherlands, and the owner has a very open mind about catfish!

So I saw my first Merodontotus, without having to go to Germany! There was a very evil looking "thing" wich looked like a Pseudopimelodus raninus; if these things can reach almost half a meter, with the proportions of a rabbit or something :shock: :shock: :shock: it must have been 1 or 2 kilo's!!

plenty rays (man, they're nice), plenty Pim cf blochi's, rare Characins, Brown Apteronotus, Eigenmannia's, L-numbers, weird Loricaria's and Teleocichla by the dozens.

And I bought 6 Pim pictus :D
They were like Tang -cats; silvery white, with tails like Syno dontis decorus....and whiskers more than once their bodylength. amazing.

The owner is enthousiastic, so we talked him into trying out Astroblephus, Leptodoras, Callichthys, Tatia novae (whatever that may be), Amphilius, Leptoglanis etc.

see what happens!
maybe we finally have a store like the Americans and Japanese have; weird cats all up to the ceiling; my cousin is trying to get Tetranematichthys!
he went home with 5 Pim cf blochi.
