2-3 inch snow leopard patterned catfish?

Post by bigoll »

Anyone help with this? 2-3 inch snow leopard patterned catfish. Very bright white, long, straight whiskers. Bought for £8.50 in Bethnal Green! Here are couple of pics, which were tricky to take as he/she is rather quick and likes hiding. Thanks!

As you can read in the link HH supplied, it's a highly social fish!
if you can afford it, buy 3-4 more. 5 is a nice group, and you'll enjoy much of them even during the day when kept in a group.

best news: they can even be bred and it isn't that hard either. :wink:
