Here we go, took 150 river shrimp to get these pics so youd better enjoy them.

Noticed the food

Stunning, thats what I was waiting for. Great fish, tankyou for showing us. Lets hope I can track one down!!! :) ....................I wish.
 
what type of catfish is that at first i though it as a shovel nose but now im not sure lovley looking fish thanks for the pics (river shrimp alive or dead ) i can only get hold of the dry ones and the fish just snub them
 
Its Hemisorubim platyrynchos or Spotted Shovelnose, great fish and very rare. Only 3-4 come in each year apparently so it was a good find by CF. :nod:
 
River shrimp were live, very few of my fish will even look at the frozen and freeze dried shrimp though they will take frozen prawns from the super market. I would like to get them off the live stuff but unfortunately the Hemisorubim and one of my bichirs are still on live only.
 
Very pretty fish CFC...........I mean it too ;)

I wish you could take more........MORE MORE and MORE......I love seeing other peoples fish and yours are NO exception to my LOVE!!!!

I would really like to see some of your SDs........AND everything else!!

MAN, I'm mad now.....you have MY Oscar in your tank.....darn you!!!!!

Edit > Now how about some photos of your SDs.....not many people have them here and I'd like to see some pictures of SDs ACTUALLY in an aquarium......... :*) besides my own :lol:
