A new to me little catfish I’ve never seen… like an Asian Cory

[Magnum Man]

I’m always looking, and ran across this at Dan’s… what I’m reading, it seems about like a Cory, but not from South America…

Anyone seen these before???

BTW, I didn’t buy any of these, as the only tanks that I have, that would suit them, water wise, are South American, and I already have Cory’s in those..

I've seen them, but not bought any. They didn't remind me of Corys, but seemed to be off the bottom shoalers. Maybe they were a bit like pygmy Corys, up in the water column where the barb and rasbora types dwell. They were in bare dealers' tanks, but not sitting around.

They reminded me of Pareutropius debauwi, an African catfish that used to be common.

I researched them extensively for my old rice paddy biotope but ended up not getting any. According to @Boundava , they are really cute extremely shy; they hide out during the day and you don't see them very often. I still might try them some day though. Pretty little fish.

I know them from Indonesia... Not that hard to keep.
