Show off your catfish :)

[Shane87]

Ah ok, I am on iPhone so it's not very big but I can see him now

 

[Shane87]

I have a 6ft tank now, and am building a heated pond.
I cant take credit for colour; he only arrived here on Friday. But I'm about to attempt to hand feed him-wish me luck!

How did the hand feeding go?

Here's my Eclipse Catfish. I have two, they're both still really young.

 

[Shane87]

I don't remember ever seeing them here in the uk nice fish!

 

[Shane87]

Best picture I can get of Scrubs rite now

Thank you! They're very common in the US, some of the major chains sell them. They love to hide, though, so not as active or friendly as a Red Tail.

Nice catfish. I would want a big tank dedicated to catfish.

 

[Shane87]

I pretty much have lol I have been a catfish fanatic sine I 1st see a baby 2" red tail, I just have a pearl arowana because the top looked empty most of the time and I want to add a fire eel because I like them

Do corydoras catfish count?

 

[Shane87]

Yep, any type of catfish counts plecos, corydoras and anything else iv missed welcome.

My male bristlenose pleco. His mate is a lot more shy- she usually hides behind "their" log.

A comparison shot of my four inch bristlenose pleco and my hifin (I was told it was a hifin anyways) pleco, who is two years old now.

 

[Shane87]

Nice pictures mine is a nightmare to get a picture, he's very skittish for some reason :/ what substrate is that? Dirt?

 

[Talvari]

Mostly eco-complete, but its mixed in with sand. My hifin is usually skittish too- I had to bribe "her" (her name is Mama, according to my 3 year old daughter) with algae wafers.

 

[Shane87]

Mine is a gibbiceps and he/she prefers meaty foods lol so much for a good algae eater.

Wow he is a beast it's hard to gauge size from a pic but I would say that is 1 of the biggest I have seen, good job!
