Hi, I just joined the site today, and I had a few questions. I'm working on my list of fish kept, I can't seem to find my marble horn as an option, is there another name I should look under? Also, why can't I differentiate between albino, longfin and normal specimens? Looking forward to being with this site! Thanks! Emily

Welcome to PlanetCatfish

I can't seem to find my marble horn as an option, is there another name I should look under?

One of these species

Pterygoplichthys

quite likely

Pterygoplichthys pardalis

why can't I differentiate between albino, longfin and normal specimens?

They are most likely to be bred variants of the same species so would be on one data page
example:

Ancistrus cf_cirrhosus

has all these

As Birger notes, albinos or other variants aren't separated out as they're the same species, just different variations. However, you can have several populations of the same species. So, you can add 4 albino corys as one population in one tank and 4 regular corys in another.

Any more queries, we're here to help!

Thanks for your help, I'll have to mess around with it and see what I can do!
