Hey guys any Lima shovelnose catfish keepers here? Would love to know the estimated growth rate on them? And would they be safe with a RTC of similar size?

just got my 2 banjo catfish and assasin snails in the mail. I thought they’d be a bit bigger then what they were but now I can’t put them in the main tank yet. So I must make a grow out tank with sand for a few months. Then the bichir won’t think of them as a snack. And the gouramis pick on the...

I'm looking for a catfish that won't get very big, and is also somewhat of a predator. I was looking at a South American Bumble Bee catfish, but I've heard those hide a lot. I'm hoping it is also pretty compatible. Can someone help me? Thanks.

Hello I Love Catfish. Sadly all the ones i like are too big for an 80 Gallon [Flathead, RTC, TSN, Leiarius marmoratus, oxydoras niger] So if you have seen any of my other threads, they talk about me Getting a Bichir but that is not 100% confirmed, so i decided, that if that plan falls flat i...

So i have recently been posting a lot, about Predatory fish and i decided to go with a Polypterus Delhezi. And i sorta want a catfish that wouldn't be eaten by the Bichir and doesn't bully the Bichir. The Dimensions of the Aquarium are [these are in cm btw] 120x50x50 Any help/ideas will be...
