tigrinus or jurnese

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Dont see any reason you wouldnt be able to keap two together as long as you have room.

I have a tigrinus coming soon, I plan to keap it with the juruense.

They are not an aggressive fish, but like other catfish, if they think they can eat it they will try :)

Will do, dont foresee any problems though.

Main thing I found with mine is feeding them when they are young, they arent very active hunters, they tend to sit in the flow of a powerhead or something and wait for food to go past them rather than going looking for it.

What I found was the best way in the end was to use some really long tweezers with the food on the end and just touch the whiskers with the food, makes them strike at it and eat it.

When very young I would make sure the bloodworm would go past them in the current, but I also used a few feeders sparingly as well, as when small they are hard to get to feed.
 
Water effects all fish :P

But Cant say I have had any issues with water changes, I do a weekly water change of maybe 40% and never had any problems.
 
thats strange then but ill learn from my mistake next time i get one i will be more careful with them
 
In Copeia 2005 (no. 3): pages 492-516. - Brachyplatystoma capapretum: a new species of goliath catfish from the Amazon basin, with a reclassification of allied catfishes. I notice it's so difficult to identify if you compare the pic. between pics. in this paper and pics in youtube. I just compare in this paper.
One, in paper if you compare between B.juresee and B.tigrinum.-there is no black spots on dorsal fin but B.jurensee has.
Two, B.jurensee, mandibular barbels reach through the pectoral fin but B.tigrinum just reach only the base of pectoral fin.
Please forgive me in my language.
 
Awesome tailfin on the fish in the video.
