Love these guys! Possibly my favorite catfish that there is. These bad boys are severely underrated. 
Agreed. A lot of people over look these for tigs . I have tig as well but I can definitely say these are a bit more hardy from the beginning.Love these guys! Possibly my favorite catfish that there is. These bad boys are severely underrated.
With tigs, what you see is what you get. With jurs, you have to wait a couple years to get the full effect. I genuinely believe that most people just don't wait long enough to see what these little grey turds can become!

Wow amazing did they they have those patterns when they were small or do they grow into them
They get them at ~3"-4" and it continues evolving, sometimes dramatically.
