Hi all, i aquired what i was told was an african shovelnose. since putting him in the tank a month ago ive seen him once. any suggestions? lol will try upload a picture at some point, hes only abput 5 inches been told he gets to about 1ft
 
Its probably clarotes laticeps, only fish ive seen from Africa being sold under this name, although it gets bigger than 1ft.
 
oh good at least its not just mine, What do you feed yours? i think mine is currently on tetra prima and catfish pellets. i say "think" cos i never see it eat
 
i'm jealous thats one cool looking cat!
 
They are beautiful and get better looking the bigger they get mine is between 6-8" now and iv only seen him eat about once or twice and that was a mouth full of blood worm and a few pellets. Just so very shy
