These are supposed to be wild caught. Picture is from seller

While trying to find some for sale I came across Ben Rosler who claims to have F1 S. Granulosus from Neil Hardy available. Supposed to get pictures and videos tomorrow. Does anyone know him and can confirm he has the real deal?

Pic above looks genuine but I've never seen w/c smaller than 10cm SL & never with the juvenile spotting - better catch methods may have changed this.

I wonder about the costs involved in Neil shipping to the US - an email to him would get an answer & I'm sure he'd be interested as if not, someone is using his name to falsely promote their business.

Picked up 2 wild caught today. What do you think?
Male?




Female?

I will be looking for more to add to my pair but since I was only able to find 2 I am keeping them in separate tanks. My plan is to place them in a 122x46x54 cm (75 US gallon) tank once the female is full of eggs. I plan on placing a grate on the bottom to separate the pair from the eggs and place many clay pots in the tank to provide an ample supply of hiding spots. Let me know what you think of my plan to attempt to get a spawn. Any information or tips would be greatly appreciated.
