View Full Version : Prettiest catfish 12-18"?
hi i am very new to catfish and have just started looking in this section lately. i'm wondering what good looking species there are that won't exceed 18" total length? i'm not talking plecos, but loricarids (sp). some pictures or links would help. thanks in advance.
wow no nominations at all?

This one has my vote. TFD had some of these recently. I only wish I had the cash at that time to pick one up.

That is a stunning cat, very similar to my Bolt cat but far better markings. What about the Lince Cat that takes a lot of beating

i'd say Aguarunichtys cf. torosus is better

a rather common cat but the markings of a mature specemin of a lima scorbim can't be beat.

I agree but I wasn't sure how big they get and he said he wanted something 12"-18". I'm guessing it stays in the 12" range but.......not sure.

Killerfish I will give you that one as the Lince grows a fair bit bigger than the thread criteria!!
Would keep either lol
