I just bought a red tail catfish and I've been puting in sinking pellets but I'm pretty sure it could eat a feeder fish do they like feeders

Ok thnx and yeah ok they get that big in the wild but I'm pretty sure it will grow to the tank I personally think the tank is huge for a 55 gallon and ok and I'm guessing its alot like the normal cat fish where they like to make dens and hide in them??
A lot of people on here dont support the whole "grow to the tank" theory. Yes, it probably wont get very big in a 55, but seeing how big it is meant to get, should you restrict it with a small tank?
Id do a google search on growth stunting in aquariums and see what you think.
Please don't buy fish and plan I. Rehoming them. Anyone reading this thread purchasing any pet and planning on rehoming it is irresponsible pet keeping. Please be able to provide the best possible care before taking in any animal
Please rehome it. Yes the fish will grow to the size of the tank but the internal organs will not stop growing. The fish will die a slow painful death this way.
