correct me if im wrong, but i do not think the arowanna would go good in that tank. i think it is more of a fragile fish and would get picked on by the jaguar. the dempsey mite also get picked on by the jaguar. IP: Logged |

striped raphael?? ie. talking catfish? I didn't think they got that big.. like 5 inches. they are a community fish, right? maybe we're thinking of 2 different things. they are cool. I wanted to get one for my community 37 gallon, but I already have a lot of bottomfeeder types. IP: Logged |

Hi red devil 2, I really think there is some confusion here, and I really don't want to get into an argument, so I'm just going to post a link to the best authority on fish that I have found. This link will take you directly to the Striped Raphael Catfish page at fishbase.org. If you want to look up other fish just click on their home page link and you can look up fish by common or scientific name. Anyway here is the link: http://www.fishbase.org/Summary/SpeciesSummary.cfm?genusname=Platydoras&speciesname=costatus IP: Logged |
