Whom ever decided l. marmoratus should now be known as as l. longibarbis sucks balls, what is up with the name change.

katfishguy (nishant of rarecatfish.net) said he was currently working on why the fish loses the color most of the time, he siad he would post answers once he has found them, besides him looking at it, I haven't read or been told anyhting else about the variations of the fish that has been published ...

sorry if you thought my replys were not backed up before, I am going on things I have read along with info from various pim enthusiasts, I wasn't sure if you wanted the exact river system that the jurunse came from. Here are some posts from another website of what people had to say about them and I ...

Sorry it took so long to reply but yes that would be known as the flash zebra, a give away is the almost marbled gold and balck pattern on the caudal fin
