G'day,
Recently took a leave from the hobby, other things in my life took hold and i couldn't keep up with my tanks maintenance, so i took em down.
Recently bought a couple tanks, and have had them up for a couple months now, and more recently, i've bought my first BIG BIG fish.
His names bruce, he likes long walks on the beach, etc etc.
Not a catfish i see often on this subforum, or, forum in general.
Probably because it's a aussie native? i don't know.
He's about 2' TL. Feeding on beefheart, and my fingers.. Getting him onto pellets and whitebait asap.
He's the only fish i've had that has full character, the "puppy dogs" of the fish world, oscars, have nothing on him.
He cost 150$ down here, which, i've heard isn't too bad because they're getting rarer from overfishing ( so i've heard ).
Anyway, enough with the wall of text, here's bruce-
(If anyone could do that youtube post thing, that'd be handy, just tired and i got a wall of text, no video)

Beautiful. Is he Neoarius graeffei = Lesser Salmon Catfish or Neoarius midgleyi = Salmon Catfish?
 
He is BIG! How long is he?
 
That guy must have a giant tank... Do they cost a lot?
 
vary cool looking fish i dont think a price is good or bad it is all how much you like the fish if you truly love it there isent much you wont pay for one lol within reason ofcorse
