nice fish

Beautiful "Monster In Progress" you picked up there. The black fins make him look like a Pseudodoras niger with a 'tude. I'm looking forward to seeing pics of him as he puts on tonnage while reaching his 36" adult size.

Try again ! :ROFL:

got one too. second laziest fish i owned. feed him night crawlers and he'll move around. mine loves them. also they do not like the light, got to watch him with the lights off

[Oddball]

These cats will show a little more activity if in a well aerated/oxygenated tank with moderate to strong water flow (at least mine did). They probably have fairly high O2 demands considering the waters they're caught in.

I rigged my fishroom with a few photo-developing darkroom lights. My nocturnal species can't see this light so, I can watch them easily when they think it's dark and become more active.

thanx guys for the comments.he was moving about this morning when the light was off,soon as i turned it on he found the bogwood and stayed there.

this wkend or next il be adding a tiger shovelnose to the tank which is a few inch bigger than the niger.
