Ctenopoma and Microctenopoma keepers??

[Fruitbat]

Anybody here keep any of the Ctenopoma or Microctenopoma species?? I've got Microctenopoma fasciolatum and was just wondering if there are any kindred spirits out there!

I kept the ansorgii gourami once.

Somonas....

Nice to hear that somebody else actually knows what these are! I'm looking around for some ansorgii to go in with my fasciolatum but these fish are hard to find!

they are also rather expensive. I'd like to get more.

I just put in a request at my favorite lfs for Ctenopoma ansorgii, C. acutiroste and C. oxyrhynchus. They think they can get the last two in for me but their supplier only sells ansorii in large numbers and they just can't move them fast enough for it to be worth their while.
