Driftwood Catfish?
Posted: 18 Jun 2004, 14:07
My lfs recently got in a "Driftwood Catfish". They are eternally busy with other furry pets etc so I haven't been able to learn even its latin name. It is about 14cm, thickset and of a dark mottled chocolatey brown,square tail, very appealing.
When I next went to visit it, it had most unfortunately jumped out of the tank the night before and was looking pretty sad but had survived the day. At A$230 this was definitely pretty sad.
Any ideas as to what this poor creature is? If I thought I could look after it and was offered it at a much reduced price I would be tempted to try to save it from further drama. I have cool temp tanks, but it could go to my son who has tropical. Can't locate it on the lists by name.
