Anytime bro! I don't keep cats currently, but I've had this species in the past, and they a blast!:smoke2:

I have just acquired two of these cats, full grown. they are great with the mbuna, and are nice to watch together. thanks for the name to the face.

I have just spent the last bit reading up on them.

they ever try to eat any of the fish? midnight snackers if you know what I mean.

cheers

They do defend themselves well. Never had any predation. Although when I had to net mine to transfer it to a different tank, it got it's spines tangled in the net, and began croaking like a frog on meth when I removed it from the water!

Great description there!

[huddles]

Yeah,

same thing here with the croaking.

they going on like a bullfrog when I netted them. his underbelly looks and feels like a frog gut, too.
