100+lb blue catfish at the aquarium

[mqktandy]

I wonder how they are? Would be cool to know.

what do you mean?

i think he means old

 

[mqktandy]

thats a good question. I would bet at least 50yrs judging by their size.

Very large size difference between blue catfish and channel catfish. Those are some huge blue's that look as old as the hills, they look to be in rough shape. Nice pics though.

even in the largest aquaria ive heard big blues have trouble getting alone, they probably beat the snot out of each other every once inawhile

I want a blue for my pond so bad. but the thing is no distributer sells them...so if anyone finds one pm me please.

Wow, those are some huge cats.

Awesome blue's. I have been catching them round the 4lb mark, but that is the smallest I have caught this year so far. The Ten. Aquarium had that one old flathead that is around 120 lbs...thing looks dead LOL.

I would seriously love to know how much they feed them...or that tank. That girl is 94lbs and it looks like the big one could eat her for dinner. On top of those two they have a dozen 3' plus long nose gar and a thick 6' alligator gar. Oh and a big flathead that hides under a log
