I'm afraid not!

- My species name covers the name of the area I'm from
- I have LDA number

No, I'm afraid not.

- I'm not an Ancistrus species.
- The genus I'm from has 6 species

We've got a few repeats so you're not alone. When I look for a new fish now, I use the Edit-Find feature on my browser because the list is too long to look through!

Thanks to Jool's Quick Find for that one....

Will update the list later tonight but here it is without the last fish: Previously Listed Catfish

New Fish:

a) I'm from a genus we haven't seen before.
b) My genus sounds a bit like an old electronic game made by a Russian man.
c) My second species name makes might make people think of Pinball. Of maybe a group of small horses.
d) All my names are from a school subject - or maybe two if you're old school or private school.

That fish was just after reading his "Which Auchenipterids are being kept by PC members?" thread.

Tetranematichthys quadrifilis

a) I'm from a genus we haven't seen before. Tetranematichthys
b) My genus sounds a bit like an old electronic game made by a Russian man. Tetris
c) My second species name might make people think of Pinball. Of maybe a group of small horses. quadrifilis and Quadrophenia or Quatro Filly
d) All my names are from a school subject - or maybe two if you're old school or private school. Maths & Latin

All yours Dave!

My genus name could refer to 'an enigma'.

I have a distinguishing trait that is shared by some species in a genus that is from Africa.

I've dropped away from this thread for a bit & now find myself to be scratching round for ideas as to what the current sp. might be!

Dave Rinaldo · Post by **Dave Rinaldo** » 23 Jul 2009, 14:28

Nope! Not the one.

1) My genus name could refer to 'an enigma'.

2) I have a distinguishing trait that is shared by some species in a genus that is from Africa.

3) My family is Bagridae .

4) "some species in a genus that is from Africa" = Synodontis.

New fish:

I'm small & about "a year old"

My species name sounds like i was named after a character from "The Big Bang Theory" but refers to my type locality

fischkringli · Post by **fischkringli** » 24 Jul 2009, 13:17

? Ok, it isnt small and it isnt "a year old, but thats my only solution

A quite brilliant guess, probably better than the fish it actually is, but no not this one.

This fish is about "11 years old" & nearly 22" too big

DutchFry · Post by **DutchFry** » 24 Jul 2009, 18:13

I don't have a clue, maybe

Got small, about a year old but I'm lost with The Big Bang Theory

TBBT do you mean the adorable Sheldon and Cooper?

Richard B · Post by **Richard B** » 25 Jul 2009, 09:37

The fish in question is from Africa & is on my wish-list, it's not Penny, or Raj, or Sheldon or Leonard.....

That was rather Penny-esque, glad you knew what I meant!
Still searching, wish it would show more than 100 results at a time..

Argh! Fits small and TBBT but not 1 year old/african...back to the fishing rod..

Wolowitz, Africa, 2 inch, 2008, Richard B-style fish

If this is the fish, I found it by looking in that All Show Size link. Didn't come up on African Waters/sizes on Cat-elog advanced search so that means Richard needs one of these so the Cat-elog page can be properly completed.

Well done indeed - that's the one!

I am presuming this species is similar in habits to contracta & nigriventris, therefore i'd require a substantial shoal
