Howdy Peter,

I yet to see either genus for myself in the field (Todd needs to get out =
west), but I've had horrible times getting Hybopsis and Erimystax to =
acclimate. Heck, sometimes to even get them home, even when I collected =
them cold. They totally whig out.... maybe I just need to put them in =
the black bucket lol. So... I've pretty put them on my personal "do not =
disturb" list as I've actually had better success with brook =
silversides, if that tells you anything :) I don't know if that =
translates over into their relatives. I did a quick Google search on =
each genus name... There were some posts about Macrhybopsis from the NFC =
list archive about keeping them successfully in a tank.

G'day folks
I'm just wondering if anyone out there has kept Hybognathus or
Macrhybopsis in fish tanks? I've been keeping them a little bit in
Oklahoma, but it seems as if no one really messes with either genus much
in captivity. Just wondering if anyone else has any experience with =
them.
