The L-numbers or Loricariidae belong to the most popular species of catfish
from South America. But even very experienced aquarists will hardly ever had
the opportunity to see alive a specimen of the genus Astroblepus, although
the family Astroblepidae, which includes the single genus Astroblepus, is the
closest relative of the loricariids. Astroblepids are distinguished from
loricariids by the naked body, which is covered by bony plates in
loricariids. So we are very proud that we have been able to import two
species of Astroblepus now for the first time ever, although in very small
numbers.</span></font></b><o:p></o:p></p>

There are more than 50 species in Astroblepus and no scientific revision has
been done for over 100 years. So a determination of our species would have
been virtually impossible without the knowledge of the origin of the fish (thanks
Carlos!). But we were informed that our fish had been collected in the upper
Rio Ucayali region, which reduced the number of possible species to 6.
Although such a determination cannot be done without leaving some doubts our
fish are at least very similar to the described species Astroblepus mancoi
and A. taczanowskii.</span></font></b><o:p></o:p></p>

a fine marble pattern. Both species become around <st1:metricconverter

All species of Astroblepus feed on Aufwuchs. The structure of their mouth and
teeth reminds one strongly in loricariids. Astroblepus are adopted perfectly
to strong current. They do not have only a suckermouth, but also a moveable
adhesive apparatus on the belly. Both specializations allow the fish to climb
even over the strongest rapids existing. On the upper edge of the opercula is
a small aperture that allows the fish to breath althout the mouth is sucked
to the ground.</span></font></b><o:p></o:p></p>

These fascinating catfish should be kept under cool conditions (18-<st1:metricconverter

strong current should be installed in the tank. Despite this keeping
Astroblepus can be compared with keeping Ancistrus species. Our specimens
have proofed so far to be very peaceful against each other.<br>

This is by far the most attractive species of all banjo cats - and the
rarest. We recently received the fish for the first time from Peru. It is
also one of the most variably coloured species of banjo cat. Most specimens
have a sharp black-and-white contrasting pattern, being white anterior and
black posterior. But there are also variations, some specimens are almost
completely black, others brownish.</span></font></b><o:p></o:p></p>

Maximum length of Pterobunocephlaus depressus is around <st1:metricconverter
ProductID="9 cm" w:st="on">9 cm</st1:metricconverter>. Like all banjo cats
the species is absolutely peaceful against any tankmate. Fine sand that
allows the fish to borrow themselves is recommended, but not absolutely
necessary. Banjo cats are strictly night active fish, so one must feed - at
least during acclimatisation - the fish after the light has been switched
off. The fish feed readily on any usual type of live, frozen or dried food.</span></font></b><o:p></o:p></p>
