Checked it out and loved it. There's no public aquariums within 700 miles of where I live. According to several people I have talked to I might have one of the largest indoor fish dwellings in montana. My poor lill 1100 gal heated indoor pond is the largest tank that any of the 3 lfs owners here in my city have ever heard of. The second to mine is a 750 gal saltwater tank.

You're in the right website, but in the catfish section of MFK. Try the lounge. To everyone else. I'll be gone for a month. Good luck to everyone. I'll give you guys an update on my fish when i return. No internet, as my family still lives in the stone age. Too bad my laptop died.:D

Cliff when you get back home we need an update of the Jau.
I'll have to take some more pics just for you, but in the mean time. I made it back safe from my trip to hit a mule deer doe after 2600 miles on the road visiting family. I'm fine, but cant say the same for my car. Ryan is close to 17-18", but my RTC is catching up and is the same bulk if not more. He's only about 15-16", but will well outgrow the jau in another month or two. The jau seems to have slowed in his growth quite a bit. Hard for the jau to get food with the gluttonous RTC eating up everything. I need to find a cheaper food source lol. Shrimp are starting to get expensive feeding about 25-30 lbs of shrimp per month to all my cats. They don't like fish fillets too good. Luckily the big guy will eat whatever so long as it's meaty so I'm not worried about him, but my other fish are so picky lol. Can't wait til they are bigger maybe they won't be so picky then. Oh the channel had the most supprising growth along with my rtc x marble. The hybrid grew from 11 or 12" to 13or 14" in a month. The channel grew from 15" to 17 or 18". The jau if you remember ate the other channel I had when it was 12" and the jau was 13" the channel catfish will definitely outgrow the jau too. I just hope I can raise them all to adulthood without any fatalities. Lumpy is a good 17 or 18" long, the other tsn in the tank is around 15 or 16". My two oscars, and jaguar cichlid live in increasing fear as they catfish are starting to get larger than them. lol, but my oscars are 14", and 13", and the jaguar cichlid is 15" so they should be good for a while. after my big tank is built I will house them and my limas in the 350 gal. I'll have to find some smaller catfish to keep in the house. Maybe some pictus, and ornates. My bullhead is close to 10". I've had the RTC x Marble hybrid only about 5 months and it has grown from 4" to 13 or 14". It will be going into the pond in another month. Still powerfeeding it to get it up to par with the rtc and jau. I've been feeding those two less so that it can catch up, but growth is amazing on all of them.
