Monster Catfish!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
wow that sux dude hope life gets back on the right track for ya. did you post about thae 4000 build i wuld love to read that one. and if you need time this thread is way easy to keep alive see here is a bump! as a moral builder.
 
Just search for 18 x 9 x 3.5 catfish tank I believe
 
I was just at the lfs and saw a Tiger Shovelnose. I thought it looked pretty cool but I seemed to remember seeing some pics of these fish getting very large. I thought "Maybe I better see what the people at MFK have to say about this first". Page 1 of this thread=bullet dodged. :D
 
that is 4 foot wide 10 foot long and shuld be at least 2 or 3 foot deep. glad to see its still alive.
 
We have raised several of these guys and are down to our last albino pangasis. He is in a 240 gal and still needs more room. This is truly not a fish for the under educated amatur. We love our baby but know he needs something bigger then we can give him. We are in the process of trying to find him a better home. So I would agree that don't buy a fish you haven't research and know what you are getting into. Just remember that is only the begainig.
 
any suggestions for a catfish to go in an outdoor pond 15ftx20ftx 8ft deep. I want something big and unique, its pretty temperate up here so they must handle the cold a bit
 
Can't goonch cats handle the cold?

Perhaps a wels catfish?

thats a big pond!
