Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Its a long way off but in the future I am planning on getting my first large aquarium. My plan is to start with an arowana and work my stocking list around that, staying within the south american biotope.
I will want a large catfish for this tank and I've really fell in love with the shovelnose tiger catfish. I've researched them online and I have been seeing different info on how large they get. Some say they get about 3' and others say they can reach over 4.
If anyone has experience with these fish I would like to hear your opinion and if you think this won't work what catfish you would recommend as an alternative. The tank size I am planning on is 535 gal 8'L x 4'W x 2.5'T. Thanks!
