good cat for a 220

[dodgefreak8]

hey everyone I was wondering what a good cat for my 220 would be. I love the tiger shovelnose but I don't want a huge cat. I would like to stay in the 15-24" range. I was thinking a lima shovel but I would like more ideas of somthing a little more rare and exotic. I also am looking for a bottom to mid water dweller so it will stay out of the way of my arowana. thanks in advance

b.jurgese cat (spelling)

looks like the tig but darker

[dodgefreak8]

were you talking about the b.juruense? Planet catfish says it needs fast water and that won't go well with my aro. any other suggestions?

[rayman45]

i would here what people on here have to say about it.
they also say my tig should be in fast moving water but he is in a 20L with a 2 hob filters

Maybe a tigrinus catfish?

i think that's bs. I've never heard of any juruense keepers using a powerhead with their fish. Juruense is a good option for you.

actually, juruense catfish does likes to perch right infront of the current.

i had 2 of them
never used a powerhead

[M|L]

powerheads are not required, but they do enjoy a little extra flow of water.

[rayman45]

true
but if you have to why not get a powerhead
only like 30$

[dodgefreak8]

were can I get one and how much are they. I have a power head if I need it so thats not an issue. thanks for the feedback

Could always put the p-head lower down in the water so the surface where your aro will be most of the time wont be affected by the flow, and your cat still has the benifit of moving water :)
