Love photo4 in big gallery, whatever it is, almost looks alien!
Is that a Lophiobagrus cyclurus in photo 14?
Hmm, auction in Basingstoke? That is a little closer. Which group is holding that, Mats? A Livebearers society, by any chance?

Re: Catfish Study Group - Annual Open Show & Auction
It's just a show, no auction (at this time). Basingstoke District Aquatic Society [I think, there are like three differnet groups that are somewhat mingled into one group of organizing people]. It's in the Kempshott Village Hall.N0body Of The Goat wrote:*DROOL*

Isn't it brevispinnis though, not cyclurus? (no clear edge to the caudal, more rounded, head of a "newt")The.Dark.One wrote: Yes, Lophiobagrus

Re: Catfish Study Group - Annual Open Show & Auction
First one was imported as Imparfinis sp Paraguay but I think they are I. minutus. The second one is a Phyllonemus typus I think

Thanks for the ID's Steve. Been on the look out for Heptapterids for sometime now. I am turning into various shades of green at the moment.

Re: Catfish Study Group - Annual Open Show & Auction
No probs. The Imparfinis were sold at Castleford's Catfish and Loach show and auction.
Yes it was a very nice fish. Must admit I've never seen one so green!

Re: Catfish Study Group - Annual Open Show & Auction
the Lophiobagrus is brevispinis; cyclurus has a much more square tail and all fins have a clear colorless edge in cyclurus; this fish doesn't have those
nice Phyllonemus btw; I hope he's not a single fish; that's one species that's best not kept alone
single P typus tend to pine and in time just disappear.
the Mochokiella's are very fat
Ituglanis metae.....very nice; another one that's like the Phyllonemus, but less extreme.
it doesn't waste away, but single fish are as shy as any Auchenipterid, while groups are quite visible, especially at feeding time, regardless of light.

Re: Catfish Study Group - Annual Open Show & Auction
The typus belongs to Ian Fuller. I think he's had it a while.
The Ituglanis is a friends and he has a group.
One of the paynei's is Ian's, one is my friend's that lives in a small group. paynei females almost always get fat. I had one for may years that looked like it had swallowed a ping pong ball

Re: Catfish Study Group - Annual Open Show & Auction
Great set of pics Steve.
The paynei were cracking specimens, I was surprised the Microsynodontis won that class.
Is that Peckoltia the winning 'L038' (not!)?
Cheers,
Mark.
