Such a lucky coincidence!

Mastacembelus pantherinus and Mastacembelus armatus favus!

Nice fish! Love that pantherinus.

Which of yours are the most out-and-about?

You'll find it swimming in the higher waterlevels as well.
The Armatus Favus sticks to the structures and the ground.

Should the pantherinus be similar in size to the dayi or armatus?

I just love the patterning on it.

 

[Xeno]

Hey,
very little is known about Pantherinus since the specimen in the trade would be labeled as Dayi or simple "tiretrack eel".
My guess would be around 60cm.

Thanks! Keep us updated on these guys.

Hey,

[Xeno]

Hey,
and another clip.
By the way: one of the pantherinus already hit the 20cm!

 

[magpie]

Love them!

 

[Xeno]

Hey,
the Dayi is over 50cm long now.
The tank's 60cm high:
