Anyone have any info on Batrochoglanis raninus (i believe that to be the sci name) may be Batrochoglanis raninus raninus or Pseudopimelodus raninus. I have seen them listed under all names. Looking to buy 5-8 of them.

I believe that's the Asian species which grows larger. I have two and they eat a LOT and are territorial.

Yep, South American Bumble bee (Jelly) catfish... Awsomly ugly fish 
I have had one for the last few weeks and hardly ever see him, but I will tell you that it's an awsome feeder and seems to eat in the same maner as a Gulper and can swallow HUGE amounts of food. Fearless as well... shows no fear at all towards much larger fish (10' RTC x TSN Hybrid, 10' TSN) even though they could swallow him whole he will still hide under them LOL
