They sell them here in Philly as "Porthole Cats".. very peaceful, but good Catfish. O0

My LFS also sells Porthole, which are very similar but differ in the tail area & 'seem' to be a bit shy.  As you say further on these are sometimes referred to as flagtail.

Ron: try searching for Hoplosternum thoracatum

I'm going to the LFS tomorrow to get the stand for the 40gal. Will let you know what kind of cats they have. Maybe I can get a couple of them and a nice plec in addition to the 2 angels or 2 firemouths I was thinking about.We're still a couple weeks away from stocking, still looking for suggestions.
