Right now I have a 34 gallon. I know this can't really hold anything but I am planning on building a larger tank soon. I just wanted to know what catfish species make good pets in everyones personal experiences. (top ten)
For your tank, pictus all the way! Got a few in my 150, awesome fish! If you can get your hands on a 150-180 get a lima! Also check out synos, jaguar synos are beautiful

when do you plan on building the tank and how big is it going to be. No offence a lot of people say I will build or buy a tank soon and never do for different reasons.
For a small tank I like the Ozark or Checkered Madtoms (20g long is minimum)for a medium sized tank I like stonecats or Yellow Bullheads (40g minimum for stonecat and 55g minimum for the yellow Bullhead), for a large tank the Albino Channel catfish and White catfish (250g minimum for white cat and 400g minimum for the Albino Channel cat) and for a Very large tank I would like one day to have a Blue Catfish (800g minimum) all the minimum tank sizes are for grown adults and depends on the dimensions width.
If I could I would get the rare and hard to find Spotted Bullhead witch would need at least a 70g tank.
Lol?,....Im not talking about Brown or Yellow Bullheads with a spotted pattern; Im talking about "Ameiurus serracanthus" whose official English name is "Spotted Bullhead", do you happen to know of anyone selling a legitimate Ameiurus serracanthus? Id also be interested In learning about any Flat Bullhead if you know where to find those also?
