Alright guys, I got a baby wels from Rapps a few months ago. Its growing well and about 1 ft right now. Once he gets big enough he will be transferred to a above ground pool.

I want another WELS CAT so this one won't be lonely so if you have a Wels cat or know of one for sale, NAME YOUR PRICE and PM ME!!!

Thanks!

Looked into Rapps, none at the moment, still patiently waiting to see if he might bring some more in.

Rapps is the only one I've seen bring any in as well. Eel cat...........whats the name of it??

Koop, keep an eye out for me, I'll give you a finders fee :)

Something I've always wondered for those who keep arapaima and RTCs and other monstrosities. What are your plans for when they grow up? Wels for example have no problem reaching 200lbs, what do you do with that fish at that point?

why would a catfish be thrashing around??? Unless something was attacking it, bugging it, etc but I assure you there will be no such problems.

I know someone here can give me the scoop on a Wels........come on!
