Hello folks!

We have decided to start a thread for fish keepers here to list out fish species that you guys have well been looking / dreaming / wishing for.

CITIES, IUCN protected and illegal species (for instance: piranhas) are welcome but try not to give high hopes that these species will reach our

Malaysian shore yea

We'll now give a head start:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



COMMON NAME: Lince Catfish

SCIENTIFIC NAME: Platynematichthys notatus

SIZE: N/A

-the nose part is straight
-the chin is curved
-human-like teeth

piranha

-nose part is curved
-chin part is straight
-shark-like teeth..

Added on September 11, 2011, 6:40 pmHahaha.. well any interest with plecos?

They look pretty, most are easy to keep and they dont need much space..

Easy to breed as well. Just like L46, L134 etc..

**Note: If u manage to breed them, tell me. I'll bag them up for export!**
