Looking awesome! Missing my niger. :( Only had it a few months before it was murdered. Let's keep this rolling. Love the L. dorsalis. Thinking of getting an Megalodoras uranoscopus :) L. dorsalis and Pterodoras granulosus are high on my list as well. :)
 
here is my pair of striped raphaels. i really enjoy them but recently they stopped coming out to eat which is sorta a bum because usually whenever i put food in the tank they would be out and about swelling their stomachs full of food. hey necro how long did it take your ralph to get to that size?

It stays in the sump since it wouldn't have made it in the display, bought it for $1 about 2months ago and only about 1" long.
 
Awesome doradids guys! My raph was purchased i believe about 4 years ago. When I moved my friend had him for a year, and he didn't grow at all, I got him back he was just 3" long at 2 years old. I've been stuffing him several times per day and he has grown like crazy!!! So he has put on 4-5" in two years time although he should be considered stunted by all means. As well as my sun cats. Some catfish species must not stunt as easy as others.
 
My new guy!!!! ;) Was told he'd be around 5" but was 6.5" on the measurement before adding him in! Almost the size of my raph already lol.
