Candiru asu? Scavenger fish in the Amazon

Hi everyone I recently saw a program on either the National geographic channel or one of the Discovery channels. Anyway, it was an expedition on the amazon, and they found these scavenger fish at crazy depths. They called it the Candiru asu(spelling is off). No it wasn't the small catfish that ...

Sun catfish and irridescent (shark) w/salt?

Hi
I have an irridescent shark along with a sun catfish living with a dragonfish(violet goby). As of right now they all live in freshwater, but the dragonfish needs some salt as they mature, are the irridescent and sun cat ok with some salt, or are they strictly freshwater?
Thank you

shovelnose!

Hi Great pics! I just want to say that your fish look great, and want to ask a question: What size tank do you have? I want a shovelnose so bad, however I'm not sure if I can privide enough room for one, and possibly more fish. I plan on getting a 125 gallon, how does that sound? Thanks Mike
