catfish

Hey everyone, Just as the title says; I'm from Toronto. New to the forum, but not to aquatic husbandry. I've been in the game for over 12 years, and kept everything from common community fish to exotic monsters. Took a break from the hobby in 2014, and decided it's time to step back into the...

Hello all, My father and I are building a pond, which is 10 ft in length, 3 ft deep, 4 ft wide. We are currently in the planning stage but we have the area it will be in. We plan for 1 foot of the pond to be in ground and 2 feet of it above ground. We are trying to keep it as cheap as possible...

so I've recently acquired a 200 gallon tank and obviously I'm thinking about what fish i should add. since i live in australia, elated catfish and salmon tail catfish are pretty common and available at most fish stores near me. I'm interested in getting a couple oscars, but i would also like to...

headed over to Vancouver aquarium today, took some shots of their best looking displays (didn't include the shark tank as it isn't the biggest/best looking) Sadly did not include photos of the touch tank as I was having too much fun petting the cownose Rays :) Enjoy

I bought two redtail catfish online (I do not have a LFS near me that has big fish) and they came today. They are little, so will be in my growout tank until they can hold their own in my pond. I have noticed an issue though. One of the catfish is missing a pectoral fin. It isn't torn, it just...

I'm in the market for a large predator, but need opinions on what to get. The purpose of this fish will be to cull, and ideally it would be able to quickly eat a 4-5" CA cichlid when full grown. I am moving in a 230ish gallon tank for this fish, 7'x2' footprint by 3' tall. The obvious choice...

So I got this guy yesterday he's around 18in or so was just wondering what are some good tank mates for him and how much bigger will he get and does anyone know how much a fish this size is potentially worth?

Just curious. What're the differences between these two fish as far as IDing goes, and then general information such as temperament, Max size etc. I've tried to do some research but get conflicting or unclear info, and they are interesting catfish and I'd like to add to my knowledge. Any...

Hi guys, I would like to keep a redtail catfish. I have two options with this - my plan right now is a 12' intex pool, RTC, TSN, 3 silver aros, and then a few filler fish (4 oscars, 4 plecos, 3 silver dollars, 2 jags). Would this stocking list work? Can pbass and stingrays be successfully...

I have a small stream that runs through my property in Georgia, USA (temps here change seasonally from 30-90 degrees farenheit). I have dug a hole and built a dam, creating a pond which i intend to use to house a small group of channel catfish. It isnt very large, only about 4,500 gallons. I ran...

I posted a thread a few pages back, well I figured there should be a new thread since there's a new plan. Plan A is to build a 26x13x6 tank for 15,000 gallons, or Plan B which is a 38x13x6 tank for 22,000 gallons. I would prefer to go with Plan B - the stock is important, but it can change if...
