Yesterday I finally got a Angelicus catfish right now he is too subborn to come out of his hiding spot so I can't take a pic, it is white with black spots like a Dalmation I named it Angey.

yup I also got two mini trout to keep it company.

What's a "mini trout"? I wasn't able to find any useful info on google (just trout pellets and a bunch of people discussing lures for trout).

Also, where is "gj" - I know that some web-sites allow anything and everything as a "location", but we try to follow a strict rule of "identifiable location" here. There are several reasons for this:
1. You can get better help - there are many things that vary from one place to another, e.g. names of medications, which medications are available where. Such things as common names of fish vary from one country to another too. Water (from the tap) conditions can be determined to some level from your location - at least if you give enough detail.
2. If you ask for something like "Where can I buy X?", it's obviously no point in me suggesting my LFS when it's 14000 miles from where you live, likewhise, if I say that you can get something at "Home Depot", it may not help much if you live in the UK or Australia. But saying Wickes to someone in the UK may help a whole lot.

Note that this website does not use this information for anything other than displayin with your posts. You don't need to be as specific as I am, but if you live in a big country like the US, it's good if you give at least the state.

It could be a Barilius type of fish

Good question. When you add an "h" at random, it becomes an occupation and an interest.

sorry I just didn't want anyone to know where I live and we live in USA the most northern part so we go fishing and at the pet store there were mini trout so I put them in.

Can you please fill in which state and "USA" in your location, under Profile at the top right of the page...

I can't find the edit button

You should click the profile button that sits in the lower toolbar at the top of each page. Change whatever necessary and then submit.

You're most likely clicking the profile at the bottom of your post(-s), which can't be edited from there.

where do you put the 'h' marc?

Post by **Marc van Arc** » 13 Aug 2007, 22:14

Nowhere. I was refering to the profile of that member. But it's going to be solved I think.

Don't worry it will

Post by **Marc van Arc** » 14 Aug 2007, 13:19

Ah, so it worked out. That's great.
I want to come back to the mini-trout once more. Could you describe them and/or post a picture?
Are they tropical or native fishes?
Just curious

Sorry I couldn't find a pic but go to google images and type in trout there are bigs ones (like the ones we catch up here fishing) but no small ones so image the big ones one centimeter long and I have to of them.

I have seen Danio frankei referred to as mini-brown-trout (In danish)

Well, could be anything, just wanted to make a guess, haven't posted in here for ages.

Now that is funny and a stretch of someone's imagination. Whatever they are they may make a good snack for the P. pictus.
There are some Galaxias species that really do look like the parr stage of some trout but they are not available in the OTF trade.
