New pick ups & feeding of the pond.

saves making two threads.

Managed to come across some unusual pimelodus - forgot the name already so could do with the Id one them. I checked them out online. Should grow to around 6". I've got a huge collection of various pictus in the fish room. So I deciede to add another 7.

See pics.

Also I got some good shots of the l.pictus feeding in the pond.

The ponds water line is 2ft deep, to show her size!

Looks like a pimelodus gracilis to me.

That's the one bud.

They are not a Pimelodid but a Heptapteriid. The genus is Pimelodella https://www.planetcatfish.com/common/genus.php?genus_id=177 Sounds close to Pimelodidae but Pimelodidae is a family and Pimelodella is a genus from a different family albeit of somewhat similar-looking catfishes.

They are almost impossible to ID to the species level from what I gather. I've had three and was never sure which species.
