Is this a gulper catfish ? Did I get a fake?

Frickin sweeet! This cat has turned in to my favorite fish he eats silversides and pellets from my hand. And enjoys catching his occasional gold fish

The TSN is not very active. much cooler looking though and he definitely enjoys his goldfish too. I had to start a goldfish tank to keep them happy. The TSN is going in one of my 100 gallons tommorow or the day after(then soon a 8-9X4 footer. I picked up a second hundy gallon on my way back from a business trip which is why I was AFK

I have to agree that these guys are really cool. My guy is pretty active, and always glad to see me. I've got a lot of catfish, and this guy is high up on the great personalities list. He's due for a name any day now. My little guy lives in 6.5 pH, 80 degree temp, and has tons of cover, but comes out every time I go over to the tank.

wow funny mines the same way lives in 8.3 ph hard water too very happy and active in the day time. I love this cat almost as much as he loves these NLS pellets lol

Yeah, definitely Ompok bimaculatus. Looks just like mine.

These catfish are awesome! They learn to take food from you pretty quick and seem to be able to fare well with fish that try to pick on them.
