Haha, Yeah. I was sitting staring at the fish for 3 hours while reading the information lol.Nice. It is not easy![]()
Are these named with the prefix micro because they're smaller then other Wallago? I'd love a wally eventually but they're so damn huge...
I will try to find some. The tank is over 7000 litres so it is hard trying to fit it all in frame lol.
The specific epithet comes from the Greek mikros, meaning small, and pogon, meaning beard. It is sometimes used in reference to the short and/or fine barbels.
As for the size, we are talking leerii's 7' vs. micropogon's 5'. Both are huge![]()
Wallago Maculatus is the smallest growing one. But it still grows to about 35"Damn! Yeah it sucks there's not any that are like 24 inch max haha
