Get some more pictures of those guys so I can nominate one for FOTM.....they are the coolest

Well, I hate to disapoint, so......

these were quite tricky btw, and it is a bit dusty looking because I snapped them at feeding time when they don't get spooked by the flash!

AWESOME! :wub:

Great pictures too......I hardly ever see my cuckoo cats.....someday, I will give them their own tank and try the old "fishy nookie" to get some wee ones.... :p
Probably easier said than done. :*)

Anyone have any experience breeding these guys? Any synodontis? :hyper:
 
slightly off topic, but this poor lil guy has to try and fight four of these for food....seems to do ok though. :sly:

No agresion problems?

One of them is dominant over the other three, but that just means he gets to hang upside down under a large piece of bogwood in the middle. Apart from chasing from that none at all really. They have been together since they were about an inch so that probably helps.

Anyone have any experience breeding these guys? Any synodontis?

Not that I know of, but haven't tried as everything I've read says impossible!! One day though one day!! :nod:
 
oh, and this is the tank that they are in......just waiting on some tuffa rock to finish it off...... :thumbs:
