I think it might be O. flexilis.
But I am not sure of it.
It came with a shipment of O. macrospilus.

Yup, I think you're right with O. flexilis. Nice fish.
Btw: are your Corys as well in that tank? If so, how about their barbels? Your gravel looks pretty rough.

Do so. I don't know if they are actually rare, but they are uncommon enough to "save" them.
It is a nice shop btw; when I first came their I was really stunned by the amount of tanks. I surely didn't expect such a large shop.

Well, I picked up two more. I now have a group of six.
There are some more swimming over there. So, if you are interested,...

I might, but I would like to ask you this: do they stock any Auchenipterids at the moment? It would spare me a trip to Germany for which I hardly have time this week...

Can you be more specific? What exact specie or species are you looking for?
Posted: 17 Oct 2006, 08:40
by Marc van Arc
Any species that is listed in the CateLog under Auchenipteridae, like for instance Tatia, Liosomadoras, Auchenipterus etc.

Nope, they have none of those.

Wouter,
Thanks for the information. In that case I won't visit them on short notice and stick to all the things I have to do in and around the house.... Autumn
