Mekong x Redtail?!

[dragonsong]

Dunno if this has been posted before, but I found this pic while searching online....where does one go to buy something like this?!
Are there any other odd hybrids with the rtc that are less common than the standard rtcxtsn? And how on earth do you combine something so unrelated....pretty sure mekong catfish are far away on the evolutionary tree.

It's probably just some color morph.

It's probably just some color morph.

Body shape and head structure is totally different from RTC. This fish is more than just a different colored RTC.

X2 it's just a piebald catfish in the paroon shark family, not a hybrid. And it's been around here before lol last one said it looked like an orcha

That's a nice looking Catfish I doubt that it's crossed with a RTC because it would have some physical characteristics besides just the coloring. A few members have had their hands on a Paroon x RTC before and it doesn't have that distinct RTC color form...just a silverish body, light red tail, and a goofy looking Catfish, from what I can remember.

I forgot to say it was some sort of Pangasius with a color morph lol. I don't think there's ever been a case of RTC x Paroon... Cool looking specimen though! would love to have one!
