I have just bought myself a catfish but not too sure about the breed. Suspected it is the subject mentioned. Does anyone have the pic of this cat??

Sorry, don't know that name. Could you post a pic of the one u just got? I'm interested in seeing it!

 

[ezman]

I will try to take some pics of the fellow by tonight!!

Here is a pic of this cat......can anyone help me to identify it?

My first instinct is to say that he is indeed this fellow...http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species_id=721....(I assume this is the fish you meant?) although it's kinda hard to tell from that photo, got any pics from some other angles? He could be P. bufonius, but I doubt it.

I think Ranius. Look on Tropical Import as Danny hawkins has photographs of his for sale

looks like batrochoglanis villosus

looks like batrochoglanis villosus

I thought that at first too, coloration wise, but the head and eyes are all wrong.

yeah his doesn't look that ugly but it can vary
