Title: My new babies ......
Post by: Ulysses048 on July 16, 2006, 04:53:55 PM
Having lost a quite large pictus catfish some weeks ago, I was missing him - so today have acquired two new ... and very cute baby pictus.
I have spent half the day watching them play - swimming up and down the glass and they seem to be settling in nicely........
I really think these fish are underated and should be more popular with fish enthusiasts.... is there anyone out there that shares this view???
Regards

I am a great fan of pictus catfish, I have only 1 at the moment, about 8cm, and can't wait until he gets bigger.
I saw a nice big one about 14cm at a LFS a while back, I just wish I had the money at the time to get him.

As for your hosting photos, I will put up a handy helper for it I posted on another forum, and hopefully it can be stickied.
