Ugly Monster?

Post by heatherhoge »

There use to be a fish on planet catfish called the Ugly Monster under the common names. I was wondering if the common name changed for this fish if so if anyone knows the new name or L number. Thanks

I would guess your talking about a banjo cat or probably Chaca Chaca. You said L number like its a pleco or something, but have never heard of any pleco being called a ugly monster.

One of the most 'morphologically challenged' species is the Pac-Man catfish, .

OK, I stand corrected. Learn something new everyday. The adults do look kind of ugly.
