Has anybody got one of these? I bought one in London yesterday; it's a real beauty. LFS I.D.'d it from a photo in the Baensch Atlas and they seem to be right. It's not in the Cat-eLog.

On the way home in the bag it barfed up its most recent meal, which made for a yucky scenario when the time came to release it.

Was that from Wholesales?

Yes. They have about seven or eight of them.

I know the ones, a good size.
I know all the guys in there, i'm a regular, if they put a pub in there I would never leave!

They have a lot of fish I've never seen anywhere else. Have you seen their Sorubimichthys planiceps? You would need a tank the size of a swimming pool.

They have some nice Amblydoras hancocki. I was going to get some until I saw the Chrysichthys. Hopefully they'll still have them next time I go.
