I think (if I've remembers my "socials" correctly) in those cool new fishes is a flat pleco from the Orincoco.

It is highly cool, please take many pictures.

Is this the one you were thinking about Jools?

Lithoxancistrus orinoco

Yes, that's right, but I don't think he has them atm, thus no images

Back from holiday, and with my flashes acting up on me, I didn't have much of an opportunity to photograph cats before my Next cruise up north to Svalbard. But I managed to pull off some sneaky shots of two species before my flashes finally died.

So here is a vibrant species, the Titanicus Pleco (

Pseudacanthicus sp(l273)

).

P.S.: not to worry, I have just received my brand new flash-system

[HAMidtun]

Aaaand one more shot of the Titanicus

What better way to start the day than to post some crisp catfish photos.

Andes Tiger Pleco (

Hello Halvard,
Beautiful pictures you take.
Are you using a flash or just a light?
Thank you for sharing

Beautiful pictures you take.
Are you using a flash or just a light?

Thank you for the kind words Ortiz

I use two external flashes, one at each side of the aquarium. In the last two species I posted my flashes started to act up, so they're not lit the way I originally wanted.
Next time I'm due for a photoshoot I'll snap a phone picture of the set-up and post it along with the species to give a visual explanation of how the photos are taken

Did a new photoshoot yesterday as the store has imported quite a few new species, so here is the first;
