Catfish selection

[cgthebeast]

This is the garra rufa. Soo small right now

That thing is awesome.
Africans are a hit and miss, mines been raised since a newborn with neons and loaches and he has no problem with them.

Yeah I just sold my Pictus cat I had for years he was about 6 inches, sadly I thought he wouldn't grab new additions which I was wrong.

Yea aggressive little cats

You could give a spotted raphael catfish a try, similar to a striped Raphael, but IMO it looks better, plus they get to be around 6 inches, with some rare growing 8+ inches

They do get pretty big mouths on them though. Or on the ones I've seen

Try feed the banjo cat some small sinking pellets while the other fish are sleeping

 

[Conman]

To me it looks like he's been eating the pellets I place in front of him each night. Belly looks plump and fed. Why do you guys think?
