2010 03 13 : Monster Shark Catfish

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
More pics soon, I just got home from a lacrosse game and I was gone from 3-10 so I'll have more up by tomorrow :)
 
Nice shark cats. We had one that topped out around 18"-20" in a 4000gal saltwater tank at the lfs I worked for growing up. Customer brought him in around 12" in pure freshwater. I took 2 weeks to slowly convert our quarantine tank from fresh to salt. My boss thought it was a channel cat so he couldn't believe it when I released it into the big display tank.

You should get one or two more. They absolutely love company. They always school, it's cool.
