Took the opportunity this weekend to take a ride over to my friends at Pier Aquatics. Didn't really go for anything in particular but they always seem to have something special. For those who know me, this is a special purchase, another Hemibagrus. This time one of the giants of the genus. Hemibagrus Variegatus.
By all accounts this is another grumpy fish, living in solitary confinement in the shop and apparently they could not even add plastic plants as it destroyed them.
I will post more in tank photos once he has settled.
Hopefully he may mellow with age like the h. wykii has and the grumpy h. filamentus who is now even living in a community setup.I
Would be interested to hear of anyone who has one of these and see if this aggression is common.
