I have two four lined pims. One I have had for over a year now and the other I got last month. As soon as I put them together they have been inseperable. I have even witnessed my orginal pim bringing food to their hiding spot in its mouth and spitting it out while the other eats. Now the new pim's belly had grown very fat but other then this it is acting normol. There are no signs of diease or stress. My question is is it possiable that I could have ended up with a male and female that might spawn soon? I haven't been successful in finding information of the breeding and behavoir of these guys. Can someone fill me in?

As far as I know the species has never been bred in the home aquaria. I could be wrong though.

Does the picture help determine anything?

The picture is not viewable. Host it somewhere else.

Read the sticky in the "What is my catfish" forum.

Alternatively, Google for "free image hosting".

Photobucket won't upload my files for some reason.

That's an incorrect link. After you host the image, copy the link provided in one of the boxes (either "hotlink for forums (1)" or "hotlink for forums (2)").
