Catfish, cichlids and tetras

Post by Martin S »

I'm having a clear-out of stock, to reduce fish numbers and give the fish I'm getting rid of a chance to go to a tank better suited to their needs.
4 x - SOLD
Purchased at less than 2", not fully grown adults at 7" (not including tail streamers). Two of the the four have snub noses, and it appears this is not uncommon in Loricaria batches. There is definitely one pair in the group as have had 5 batches of eggs carried to hatch by the largest male, but the fry don't make it due to the other fish in the tank.
£25 for the four, collection only from Redhill RH1

Pair (M + F) Krobai xinguensis
I have a large pair (male + female) of these fish that I wish to move on as they are out-competing some of my other fish for food. The male is at least 5" SL and the female only slightly smaller at around 4.5". I have not (as far as I am aware) seen any breeding activity, but that's not to say it won't happen in the right environment. These come from Xingu, so an ideal peaceful cichlid for a biotope.

£10 the pair, collection ONLY from Redhill (RH1)

Hi Martin,
Might be interested in the catfish when I get back from holiday in August if you still have them then.

Hi Alison
The Loricaria (and maybe the cichlids too) are going tomorrow I'm afraid.
Thanks
Martin
