hara jerdoni owners?

Nice pics. They look a bit like "talking" catfish (Doradidae family) with the funky bony plates. Predatory catfish usually have longer barbels, and the shape of their mouth is different as well. These guys look more like opportunistic scavengers or micropredators. Decapped brine shrimp would also be a good food for them.
I ordered 18 of the other Hara cats, planning to place them in groups in 2 different tanks. One tank has pea-size gravel, the other one sand. I'm figuring on breeding them, and want to see which setup works out better. I imagine both the eggs and the fry will be tiny, probably similar to Synodontis lucipinnis/petricola.

THere are probably multiple species of hara catfish. You can sometimes find bright orange specimens if you are lucky.

they seem to hide alot but i do see them in the tank often during the day sitting on plants in the open and on the back glass. i notice in the morning they were all sitting in the huge aubertii i have.
they move really slow though i have noticed they dont fly around the tank, there like snakes glidding through the plants or cows grazing the field lol
