(16.Jan.2008) This Longnose armored catfish was caught by Hoffmann & Hoffmann in Peru in a small canyon 50km away from Puerto Maldonado toward Boliva in 2004 and brought along legally. The very variable drawing,
from monochromatically grey to big black spots
on the sides of body (hence C115 and 116) is interesting. The breeding is surprisingly simple for a longnose, the females place the rather small eggs separately into “moss plants”. The youngsters grow extreme fast.
