It is an international garden, leisure & pet exhibition (trade only) - there's not too much livestock in the medium sized aquatic section but as it is free to the trade it's not bad to pick up a few freebies. Of course exhibitors are looking to do big business so they're not really interested in the "saturday boy assistant" which was my way in, but neil hardy aquatica were exhibiting & i managed to pick up their "additions" list (which generally includes the more unusual stuff)
They had a new hybrid syno i've not come across before which will go by the name of "syno white fin" They were less than an inch long, the body resembles orientalis but with solid white fins (soft rays). They also had the zebra hybrid (which Chrysichthys & i saw at Stratford & couldn't decide if it is genuine or not - it is not). Lucipinnis was the only genuine one on display. I'll copy the details below in synowatch but the lists includes these africans...
Syno angelicus, brichardi,alberti, contractus, flavitaeniatus, eupterus, decorus, multipunctatus, nigriventris, notatus, ocellifer, petricola pleurops, schoutedeni, soloni, & a couple of hybrids
Also B. batensoda, Chiloglanis sp,
Mochokus sp!!!!! & P.Typus & L.Cyclurus & various glass cat types (no latin names)
I am very interested in the Mochokus as i haven't encountered these before.
Plus the list includes many SA cats, so these might be coming to a lfs near you/us soon?
