i recently set up a 55 for my asian upside down cat, was going to put bosemani rainbows in it. (not anymore)..Sunday i had to shovel the roof most of the day, my wife left during that and came home with this guy. So far its working out fine. The lighter pic I stressed him out I think moving things around. He did wander into the cave with the catfish but got shoved out and hasnt been into it since. He found a different spot under some rocks. But mostly hangs out in the fake plant areas. 1st pic is what the tank looks like.

He's stunning! What a lovely gift :)
 
Thanks, never had one, hes a very messy eater. most of the food passes thru his gills and ends up all over the sand. Thinking of adding 2 pimelodus pictus catfish to pick up the scraps of food and see if they work out. still on the fence though, going to wait another week and make sure the 2 get along fine.
