fishboi Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 bought these off kyle couple of weeks back now and have been researching like mad trying to find out what they are. now from all i know these were imported and sold as L002 but i am almost certain they're not cuz of their eyes and the pattern on the head, in fact after a lot of on line research and book flicking i am almost certain they're in fact L226. near the end i was tossing up between L226 and L206 and what made my decision is after a close look at ALOT of pictures i've notice L206 always have spot on the back fins not stripes. but would like to actually have an positive ID please this is the list of what ppl have told me what they could be. L002 http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/im ... ge_id=5109 L080 http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/im ... ge_id=5552 L038 http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/im ... ge_id=1585 L206 http://www.plecofanatics.com/gallery/sh ... 92&si=L206 L226 http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/im ... ge_id=5680 flicking back at old post under catfish section i came across this link posted by kyle and suspect they are the same guys i bought off him so click on the link below to see better pics taken by kyle: http://www.fnzas.org.nz/fishroom/my-new ... 14342.html sorry for the really bad pic but these guys only seem to come out at nite so i can only take pics in the dark with my flash on. the bottom one not the top one. let me know what u guys think and i'll try and get better pictures.

rcon021 Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 hey bro, i am not really sure but they look like Panaque changae L226. I do remember looking at them so hmmmmm. Plus these fish are imported from peru and thats where they are native to as well. Just my 5 cents bro :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
