got a new mate for my oscar tank



still acclimatizing







newly introduced into my tank

any guesses on what it is.............

I bet it's MINE!!! LOL

Way cool Cris. Nice find!

awesome! i don't know what it is but I WANT ONE!

Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum.
That's my educated guess, and yeah, I'm a bit jealous now...
Sweet fish though.
Looking forward to seeing updates on it's growth.
Top wish list fish for me, but out of my league.
Maybe some day when i grow up...

tiger shovelnose?? or tsn x rtc??

awesome im after a lima atm!

thanks for the compliments guys.

and as for the species your right. its a pseudoplatystoma fasciatum aka tiger shovel nose catfish(wild caught last month). i went out to my breeders freinds place to look at a tigrinus and saw this guy in the same tank. couldnt help myself and had to have him. they always were my favorite catfish species...

gorgeous fish mate 10/10

btw, Necro, are you planning on handfeeeding.
They are very cool and gentle when they get used to that!
