fishclubgirl Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 So the mr. fishclubgirl and I were making our rounds and spotted some cories labelled as albino zygatus. This sparks a heated discussion on whether these fish are zygatus or aneus(and you thought your relationship had issues...). Any "catfish" gurus able to tell me the difference???

cjerrom Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Could they also be albino rabauti as these are being bred in Florida and the stripe is the closest to zygatus but on an albino is a mute point or if it does show does the stripe curve down or go at an angle on the albino?

fishclubgirl Posted February 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Hard to see the stripe and I think the only way would be to get a group of both... just what I need more fish.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperGuppyGirl Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Been doing some research since your post piqued my interest, only thing I could find about albino zygatus was on Scotcat. It mentioned a little copper coloured eyebrow on the albino zygatus as opposed to albino rabauti. Here's the link to the article : http://www.scotcat.com/articles/article114.htm But all I could find mentioning albino zygatus, hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjerrom Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I was also looking on the other web forum - canadapleco and noticed a guy that runs the Big Al's in GTA offering albino aneus and thought maybe they have a central office ordering system like most big box stores. Who voted for the zygata? If it was you, Mr. Fishclubgirl is probably still wrong as it's the same rule in my house! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
