Got an eye on some gulper cats,large bushfish,red tail payara, and some local tanks being sold. Also following a few vendors for those fish that don't come in so often.
Tank isn't full but full enough on sensitive fish and really don't want to add anymore. I could add one fish and that's all it'll take to lose everything. Always thinking and watching.
No need to break from expenses. I work a lot and I'm good for rainy days. Plus the wife fish blocks me so much.

That's about the same I paid. Mine were 9"-12" at $100 each but I paid $350 for 4 from Ray Chan 8 months ago.
Thanks, guys.
Thanks, guys.
Nice, and I agree, one fish is all it takes to mess the balance up or make everyone sick. Sometimes you don't even have to add a new fish for that to happen.
Nice, you planning on more?
Actually I think the video Matthew Bennallack on Planetcatfish shows a Trachy with a similar belly. Still it is interesting andit would be nice if we knew collection points this way we'd know where each variant is from. As it I'm hoping we do learn something new. Between you, kno4te, TBTB and myself we have every regional variant I believe. So we can note whether there's any differences in temperament or habits. Perhaps one is more aggressive? Or more outgoing? Or maybe one of us will be cool enough to breed them.Looking forward to it.
Thank you! And maybe a third variant? Lol would be cool. These things have huge mouths, I think even bigger ratio to their body in comparison to the jaguar catfish. If trachys were in stock back when I got the mystery fish, I probably wouldn't have got the mystery fish, due to already having a jet black cat, and one I can keep for longer for sure with no worries or issues at that. Another hint
Nah, your mystery fish(which you know from my other post on my thread I now know.lol) has things the Trachy doesn't. While I love a Trachys face there's something undeniably sexy about your mystery fish and his body shape among other things.
By the way guys my Trachys set me back $40 a piece.
That's steal at that price.Actually I think the video Matthew Bennallack on Planetcatfish shows a Trachy with a similar belly.

That was years ago but still even back then it was a steal. You've been here since 2005 longer then me so maybe you remember Infinite Aquatics the vendor on here. Rich/ rkc772 always had amazing stock and his prices where unbeatable. Man I miss dealing with him and the fish he offered.
Maybe you're right, but it would've been easier for me to say no to myself again. And don't think we've got to hide it, as I'm sure they know as well if they read it lol. I tried putting massivore in just now with the lights off, he's still in his dw, I have the light on the tank under this one to provide enough light for me to see the fish at a certain angle or if I get close, can make out who it is by their fin shapes and sizes. And I will text predatory fins and see if they know the locale of where it was caught. And steal is right. Less than half of what I paid.Actually I think the video Matthew Bennallack on Planetcatfish shows a Trachy with a similar belly.
