damn, :WHOA: how much did you have to pay for that bad boy, if you don't mind asking?

i'm actually thinking about going and picking one up if i find someone local who will take it if i can't get an appropriately-sized tank in time. whatdya think?

I saw the TSN again that the FoCo LFS had and was really tempted cuz it looked so underfed and skinny (they had 3 last time i was in, now theyre down to 1). I wonder who is buying those. they also have about sold out of the silver aros. someone bought a 16" black pacu they've had forever when I was in today. i don't think they know what they're getting into. i know they don't w/ the pacu because the guy said they feed it a small handful of PELLETS once a day. I'm thinking I shouldve stepped in and told they they can get HUGE and that they need veggies, too. If it was a black rhom, i would've gotten it a while ago :grinno:
He was £15 at 14" as hes my boss and is hapy for him to go to a good home.

You get all the good deals, Bruce. :headbang2 Any pics of it?


I saw my first TSN/RTC on Friday. It was about 14 inches.

thats strange that they would mislabel them like that when it sounds easy to distinguish them

Many times catfish are mislabeled. It's all about marketing. From what I understand longibarbis are called perrunos for dealers as that's what they have always came in as. This was started before there was a true distinction of which species had what characteristics. No one bothers to do a dorsal fin ray count. You could easily get a mixed batch and not know it. You really have to take a still picture of the dorsal fin to get an accurate count. Again I have yet to see any definitive pictures of a true perruno.
