I think it is related to the Oxydoras and Megalodoras cats as well as others,this is a large group and their care is about the same.

Hey,

other question: How big is your tank? The biggest granulosus I've seen so far were almost 4 feet and about 90 lbs!!!! But they were in a 4000g private tank.

Cheers
