how do you manage to clean that tank? and the filtration? what is the full set up?
I use two 600 lb swimming pool sand filters with 6 bag filters and 4 ionizers.

Those are some monster cats. Fish that your average keeper can't dream of owning successfully.

Amazing how small those RTC look. Awesome fish!
They don't look small when friends are in the tank with them. Some times they are 15 to 20 feet away in the videos and that is why they look so small.
