Information

The cryptic Agamyxis pectinifrons is a South American Doradidae that is found spread throughout the Amazon basin.

Care tips

• Prefers lower temperatures (20.0-26.0 ℃)
• Prefers slow moving water
• Omnivore
• Try to keep them as a group of 4 or more
• Needs dark hiding place
• Provide bog-wood and or drift-wood

Agamyxis pectinifrons is also known by Spotted talking catfish, Spotted raphael catfish and White-barred catfish.

Below you can find photo and video collection of the two Spotted raphael catfish I cared for. I kept this species for about 4 to 5 years. A peaceful and shy catfish that really needs dark hiding places. I am sorry for the dated and poor photographs.
