Eclipse catfish in a community

[nshepler]

For anyone wondering about eclipse catfish in a community tank. I would suggest you didn't do that! This is my eclipse catfish after he ate a baby blue gill about the size of the end of my finger. This guy would make a community tank a lonely place after a few nights.


May the force be with you.

Good advice sorry you learned the hard way. They get big too I hope you have a large tank waiting for him.

Haha actually the bluegill was a feeder fish for my largemouth bass. And yes I have a 100 for him.

What is that amphibian you have back there?

 

[nshepler]

That would be an eastern spotted newt.

Fun fun! Make sure the eclipse doesn't eat him too!

Hahaha, they are poisonous so if he did that, it would be the last time. LOL
