Short Twig Catfish?

[mikeisrad]

I was wondering is there were any "twig" cats that are smaller than 5", but readily available. I know there are many genuses of twig catfish, but what would be small, but still common. I really like them, but my tanks are pretty small, so just wondering.

Rhineloricaria generally remeain under 15 cm, that is 6 inches, but I wonder whether they fit your desire: They are gound bound catfish, not algae eaters.

In Europe, "Rhineloricaria parva" is generally offered. I wrote "", because it is almost certain this is not the species, in fact several species may be offered under that name. Rhineloricaria look very similar and are almost impossible to name, unless one knows precicely where they were collected - info the exporter generally does not provide

I was thinking more like catfish from the farlowella genus or similar, but that works too.
