Ahh, got it.

Here's a fish that is seen, but not seen often. Chuco micropthalmus. Nasty little bugger from Honduras. Doesn't play well with others.

steatocranus tinanti

dunno how rare but i have seen very little about this neat little community based fish, i have a group of 8..its amazing watching these communal little fish communicate and interact with each other and tank mates.

very looked over awesome fish!! Every morning when lights come on they all come out and have "community time" witch involves all of them following the dominate male and female around..running up and down the glass around the logs and finally ending with everyone taking turns piling on his body and wiggling there tails at him...strange little fish i love them!.

They are also very curious, They always watch me when im moving around the tank..i often look over to see a row of 4-5 fish staring at me.

my dominate male Randy
