Perhaps depends on age. Earlier in this thread, Fugupuff stated that in young fish, the maxillary barbels exceed the body length by 2-3 times in capa and 5-6 times in fila, if I recall right.

Yeah, post #77, page 8:
Almost everyone can agree, before the barbels break off, at 2-4" SL size, the true filamentosum would have barbels about 5x the lenght of the body vs. 2-3x on caprepretum.

sorry the link was just the facebook page where I plan to put pictures of many rare cats, just thought you guys might enjoy it.

fugupuff that link you provided does not lead to any information in regards to the species of fish we are debating. Is it the wrong link or am I missing something?
