Lorna loved them even though they didnt turn out to be zebs...

We ended up buying 5 today,

I've just spent 30mins putting the pictures up...

They are about 1.5" so quite small but are they L236's?

I guess its good stuff from peoples comments (and the price!)

where do you guys get it from? (i guess its cheaper online?)

I brought 300g on ebay for £6.50 or for 150g in shops in ranges from £9.99 - £12.99 i swear by it loaded with protein.

I'm feeding JMC catfish pelets with 48% protien at the moment...
They do a high protien version with 56% I think, but its more ash in

Nice fish - what's the difference between those and L-199?

smithrc · Post by **smithrc** » Mon Dec 19, 2005 12:00 am

eye up... I've still not got a definite ID on these yet

the 199's have stripes though these are kind of patchy/squiggly

I'll try and get some more pictures over Xmas.

these 2 are more recent... well... August

Those little ones look an aweful lot like my L333 babies..... Some of mine have so much light, they look like a different kind of fish but I know what the parents looked like...... They grow incredibly fast also. I'll try to find some pics or take new ones (which I should do)...

Dont look like L199 to me. The L199 are too bright.

Beautiful specimens

Do you have the locality information?

When i look at the photos, i feel that the black
and white contrast is not as sharp as the "L236"...
In addition, the patterns on the fish also look a bit different...
So, the specimens you have got could be the so-called
L287 (or now the more well-defined and trust-worthy species
L400)...
