I have left the L 128's. kept for 3 years and no action. time to try something new.

Welcome to planetcatfish from way across the pond in ohio. Usa.

hello all, i am starting a new breeding project on the L-128. i would like to know if anyone is currently working with them or if anyone has any suggestions on this species? i currently have one 6 inch pair housed in a 125 gal tank. my water is fairly soft here. would anyone recommend going to a sma...

could someone give me a link to the site for registration please? how many americans plan to attend?

jools this may have already been discussed. however what about verifacation of a spawn through your local fish club. simply have the bap chairman e-mail you a verifacation saying a person has turned in a particular spawn. one of my clubs already has a catfish bap and it would be very easy for that p...

dave,

is that something you find often? i have a box of those coming in next week. just wondering?

a differant view

no this is a importer who has been in business a few years now. they actually came highly recommended from other company's. live and learn i guess.

a few example's

i receied L-204 i think vs L-270 that i ordered
not sure yet vs L-106
c trilintiatus vs mellini
L-200 instead of L-333
these are just a few examples of what happed so far

this is another shot from side. the common named used was blue meddusa pleco. they do have area's of blue tinting

hello all just a couple of points i would like to discuss. for those of us that order from importers, have you had any trouble with the fish identifacation from these company's. example the company i most recently used, we ordered 17 species of fish and 15 happened to be something other than what i ...

these fish where shipped to me as LDA-074. the shippment originated in columbia. what do you think. i will add pic's as they become available.

have you had any luck with the madtom collection? i have in the past had some success in the neo area. let me know if i can be of any help. ken walker

In your opinion, decent fish to keep?

my personal opinion is yes. i'm not aware of anyone trying to breed this fish in the US would be nice if someone started to work with them.

in this case i would agree that this is L-056. this is a common import into the US and is on almost all current import list.

it has been a long time since i have kept this fish, my guess would be 1male and 2 females. a couple of better pictures from directly above the specimens would be a bit of a help. kw

jools,

i will work to get a closer photo of the fish in question. will also try to get a better size and send over.

kw

i will talk with a friend that has bred a couple different species of the lep's and see if he will put something together for pc. i believe he has done the L-7,264 and something else this past year.

kw

could some one please tell me if cw 014 is the same cory that is reffered under the common name of orange laser?
i am just curious.

i feel the size is incorrect on the L-70. my specimen is much larger than the 3.9sl. i can have turley confirm this. matbe closer to 5.5sl. will send you new pics as well.

kw

what are the magor differances between the 2?

hello everyone, i was just wondering who might be going to the ohio cichlid association extravaganza this year? i would like to get a head count of people from pc and maybe figure out a place to meet at the hotel. take care and hope to see you next weekend.

ken

They're gone, but if you let me know what species you are interested in, I can reinstate them quite easily. Jools that will work for me. i am now settling in to our new house and should be able to start helping out again on a more regular basis. i will take a look later this week and get the ball r...

jools

before you remove it can you send me the links via e-mail? will they still work if i submit to you?

kw

i have to agree with Dave on this one. take a good look at the pic's in the cat-e-log.

i have actually heard of this reported in 2003. that was when ivan diddle had made one of his visits there to his fish conservatory. he found a few sites there outside mexico city that was farming pleco's and tilapia species.

hello folks

early last year i picked up some cory auneus long fins. i was wondering if they are rather common here in the usa. they where shipped out of the fish ponds of thailand and the pacific rim before the tsunami. just curious
