HannibalsMum Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 So I'm watching an old episode of River Monsters an Jeremy Wade was shown this little besty. I would like to know what it is an if we can get it in the AU. The phota are off the TV an the catfish was in a massive tub with other armored cats. Unfortunately its been in alcohol so its not its true colors. Its from either the Congo or Amazon ( can't remember the episode either but I do know he was looking at small meat eating fish that made holes like a gun shot) Dose anyone know anything about it? Hope this is a brain tickler for you. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grubby Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 I saw that episode, the scientist said it was an undescribed species, most probably a wood eater. They are only scratching the surface with these bad boys in terms of what's out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mone Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Could be this one I think rather than 190 My L027 Panaque sp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannibalsMum Posted April 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 L026 doesn't have the bristles but the looks. But right coloration. I reead somewhere that once the l190 lose the strips when they get over a certain size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
