PlanetCatfish.com

You may have noticed that the three catfishes at the top right of every page change randomly every 5 minutes. From time to time they all change to the same (see attachment). I wonder how likely that is to happen (there are 14) and if we can collect them all in this post.

Top left.
Assuming they are random then the odds are 2744:1
Or once every 9.5 days.

Sorry, yes, of course it is top left. Doh!

I thought i was on the site quite a bit, but have never seen all 3 the same

3 granny's is cool though

I've seen plenty of 'doubles' but am seeking the elusive triple! If granny's have gone, maybe i'll spot the decorus?

Well, post a picture here when you do and let's collect the set!

Jools

Hmmm - this is proving far more difficult than i thought, still no triples!!!!!

Yeah, I know, right place, right time and all that...

Jools

Look what I found, my first triple!!!

and what a nice one! P. ornatus!

i'm still waiting to see my first triple, but if i spot one, how do i take a screenshot, just in case?

In windows, you press Ctrl-PrintScrn (that's the key next to F12 on a standard keyboard).

Then you need mspaint or some other picture editing software to cut down the image to a smaller one.

I must confess i got the girlfriend to sort out the post once i'd done a screen grab using OneNote - i am so technically inept at times

I just logged into a triple crown!

Nice one! Shame you didn't post a screen shot as I don't think I've ever seen this one myself. So, I guess this one is still up for grabs.

Cheers,

i saw a duo from the royal panaque yesterday, but the screenshot wasn't working

i still don't know how to make a screenshot, CTRL + Printscreen doesn't seem to do the job

You can just press PrintScreen/PrntScrn on its own. Doing this grabs the whole screen and puts it on the clipboard. Alt+PrntScrn grabs the current active window. I'm pretty certain Ctrl+PrntScrn doesn't do anything.

So, you press the key, go into your image processing application (MS paint, photoshop etc) and just paste. Voila. All you need to do now is crop the image down so it resembles something similar to the posts above and you can save it and attach it to a post here.

That is the trick: PrtScr puts the screen on the clipboard.

Not expecting this, I was not able to make a screenshot (I tried for when a triplet shows up)

thanks, now i'm ready for the triple

all the best

That's 20%* sorted then C'mon the rest!!!

*actually 21.4%

I seem to be getting the same three fish all the time now.

What actually are all the 14 species we are looking for?

This was a bug and has been fixed.

MOD EDIT - fixed links to images.

Thanks, sometimes the pictures aren't quite clear exactly which species it is. Especially if I have no clue as to what they might be in the first place.

Thank for the names of the fish above, but I only see 2 also!

There's a topic on this in teh bugs forum, can you bump that. I'm trying to keep this topic clear of bugs....

Jools

Again

Finally saw a triple today and had to add it.

now we're getting somewhere!

I only see doubles so far, any interest in those as well?

at this moment for example, i see two S. decorus
