Last weekend at the ACA 2003, Ad Konings mention those catfish in his Malawi presentation. He talked about and showed pictures of a particular species of cichlid that would strip skin off of the catfish leaving long white scars on every catfish in the lake. He also said that many cichlids will "dump" their fry with brooding catfish and let the catfish unknowingly guard the cichlid fry, alongside their own. He went on to say that many species of cichlid abuse this catfish in many ways, because the cichlids are more intelligent.
It was a Great presentation.
