smokedamage Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 I got these upside down cats a while back. Picked up four of them. Now they're not the usual stubby brown upside down cats, they are these great big bloody midnight black bastards, with about a dozen white or silver flecks scattered on their sides. They look vaguely like upside down salmon cats, but have quite a deep body and high dorsal fin. Barbels, are four up four down, the two outside tip ones are very long.Each of them is past 10cm, and they seem quite happy to come out and perform late at night - lights on or off. Performing involves swimming in formation, a diamomd shaped normally but they do seem to be adding more inventive maneuvers to their routine. And they they do a few lazy laps of the tank head to tail, and it looks like a funeral procession.I have no idea what they are, no one seems to be able to tell me. Anyone got any ideas? at all?
