My first cats!

been looking it to catfish for some time and i love the look of the larger guys.

well i found Midnight catfish...or "Zamora woodcats"

to me they look allot like the larger guys and only reach about 5 inches^_^

i picked up two for my 40 gallon tall..that is being upgraded to a 70 tall next month when i get the stand built, might get another.


they are shy at fist but today was the first day they came out and stayed out for a while ...sooo cute^_^ enjoy!

they are just a little over an inch at the moment.

and there 40 gallon tall that they share with 6 w/c steatocranus tinanti and some guppies soon to be upgraded to a 70 tall.

This pic was taken just after a water change..everyone was a little ticked with me for blowing sand in to there caves....so they were busy cleaning them out and didn't want to come out for the camera .

Nice! what are their max size?

5 inches

ahh thats not too bad of a size for a catfish!!

Nope not at all, and they are housed with smaller fish and iv yet to see anyone get picked off,

they tend to come out and curse the tank for a few hours a day and during feeding.

Its like watching little bull sharks nose around your tank.

Looking good! They really are filling out nicely.
