Here's a question; how do you distinguish a hemibagrus wyckii from a wyckioides, nemurus??? Any1??? I just want to confirm which 1 I have. I have had people tell me that it a wyckii and others say its a nemrus... I was wondering how you you can tell the difference. I tried an image search for both and pictures are the same:confused: :confused: :confused:

I'm in the same shoes as you. I bought a fish not knowing what it was, and I been doin a ton of research on it... It has white tips on its tail, so I thought it was a Wickii, but others are telling me its an ARTC. Apparently, Wickii have short barbells, where as RTC's have LONG barbells. I'm convinced its a hybrid of the 2. As for your situation, use all the search engines and Just type in Hemibagrus, and take it from there. eventually you will stumble upon a guide to seperate all the different species
