"dalmatian" catfish :D

[goldcook]

guess what kind of catfish is this

[Silurus]

Young

Duopalatinus peruanus

[goldcook]

nope

it come from rtc x tsn
only 4pcs like this

[Suckermouth]

only 4pcs like this

Do you mind explaining? There are lots of RTC x TSN hybrids around, but the appearance of this fish is rather striking.

I'd guess

Phractocephalus sp_hybrid(2)

I've seen photos better resembling the photo above than the only one in Cat-eLog.

Although this fish is very small the headshape, fins on the back (shapes of)& position in relation to each other don't look like any hybrid i've seen pics of. It looks genuine something-or-other. Is this supposed to be a guessing game or is a firm ID being sought?

[Jools]

Young

Duopalatinus peruanus

The adipose would be a shark like triangle. This isn't like any SARTC/TSN cross I've seen. Although it's a young fish the snout looks a little misshappen but otherwise it looks clean.

My first reaction was TSN/pictus. However, it might even be a young

Pseudoplatystoma corruscans

.

Anyway, I'm with Richard. What's the background to the fish and the question?

Nice! Are you a breeder or a fish dealer? Did the platinum/melanistic guys come from your breeding activities as a side product?

It'd be nice if you introduce yourself so we know at least the basics of who we are talking to. No real requirement, but as Sid the Guppy would aptly label it, it's a part of netiquette.
