Is there any catfish in the that looks like a pictus but can be kept in a 26 gallon? I just like the long-barbel look.

Have you tried sorting the Cat-eLog by size?

The smallest of the Pimelodidae = Long-barbelled catfish is 38 mm: http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/fam ... mily_id=15

Heptapteridae are close to Pims in appearance. Smallest 24 mm http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/fam ... mily_id=30

I tried but it would not work for me. I cannot find either of these and the links are not working.

I am not sure about availability in your part of the world but the following are small & available from time to time


- also other species - marthae, imitator...
- also other species...



Any of these take your fancy?

I think Mystus carcio is a good replacement. This species is quite hardy and regularly available in the trade as well.

Thanks so much guys I am definitely looking at a few of them
