Lamontichthys filamentosus
Sturgeon Catfish
June 23rd, 2013 — 10:08pm
This species is relatively common in the aquarium hobby but is not easy to maintain and recommended only for experienced aquarists.
It can be told apart from all congeners by specimens larger than 60 mm SL possessing an extended pectoral-fin spine forming an extremely long filament that may be more than four times the length of the first branched pectoral-fin ray (vs. not possessing such a filament in other species of Lamontichthys).
