SuperGuppyGirl Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 So had purchased 7 of what I thought and was labelled as C. Melanistius. I QT them as they were juvies for a few weeks and then added them to my 75G, walking by the tank this afternoon I took a peek at my lil Cory darlings as I had taken out my Cryptos fav spawning coconut to give my corys a rest from spawn crazy fish. Peeking under the sponge filter all huddled together were my melanistius or so I thought. 3 of my so called Melanistius had striping on their tails and 4 had clear tails. Scratching my head I started scouring planet catfish and scotcat, and low and behold the false melanstanius are the brevirostrius. Unfortunately the trio is 2F 1M and no known spawning in the aquarium, but one can hope! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
