A never before seen? Bluegrass is offering white dorado catfish duopalatinus sp.

I've asked on PCF http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=43969&p=299844#p299844

I thought I'd post here too. Any thoughts on the ID? $67 Medium: 3-4 inches



I'm wondering if this could be that elusive TSNxblochii hybrid http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/species.php?species_id=1181

I asked the seller. Got this:

Looks nice. The only one I've seen is from an old pic.

Certainly looks like it.

looks awesome, definitely resembles both the TSN and Blochii so maybe it is. How big do those guys get - closer to TSN or the Pim? or are they so rare that nobody really knows

If what kno4te posted is the real hybrid then I'd say that is not, or maybe it's because that's a juvie.. But they look quite different to me.

Yeah they definitely look a little different, but I think you get that with hybrid species. My RTCxTSN looks different than most others. Not to say that either pic is 100% tsnxblochii, just that the hybrid species are a lot less uniform

 

[kno4te]

Still think it's the same fish. Probably cause it's a juvie that's why it looks different. Also this pic from blue grass looks more blochii than tsn. One side can dominate more than the other. Nice fish.
