Hello, im new to posting but have read many posts by others to get info. Right now i have three tanks, a 20 gallon with a feeder goldfish (my son thought he was cute) an albino ciclid (misnamed a tiger by the fish store) then a 30 with a tiger oscar, and a small spotted oscar (forgot his proper name) a pleco, and a three inch redtailed catfish.then in my 55 i have a one foot tiger shovelnose, two bullhead catfish from our pond outback, and a pinkcheeked kisser ciclid and another pleco. im trying to find other compatable catfish for jojo (rtc) and Thanksgiving (tsnc) for when we get the 600 gallon built this winter. any sugestions?
 
welcome to mfk.. nice to meet you and glad your here among us... if you have any questions about the forum just ask.. Have a great time... i know you will!!!!
 
Thank you! I love the info here. Heres the situation: I live in maine and currently have a Tiger shovelnose (Name: Thanksgiving size: round 1') a red tailed cat (Name: JoJo size: 4") and am trying to get two more monsters. we are taking out a wall in the living room to built a custom 600gal this winter because Thanksgiving will outgrow his tank by then. and next winter the entire basement is going to be a pond. What started as my husbands hobby is now the love of my life. :) Any sugestions for a nonagressive pretty cat that will get along with my fish kids? Starting size doesnt matter as we also have a 20gal, 30gal, and the 55gal that Thanksgiving lives in (tsnc). The profiles on fish ive seen were incredibly helpful, but very little mention of compatibility which is important for us because we only bought poor JoJo (rtc) because the petstore had him in with some agressive ciclids that had chewed off most of his dorsal and tail. :(
 
welcome to the forum! that rtc is going to grow fast and i know the tsn is going to enjoy the extra space so build the pond asap and post a diy thread on here so all of us can see :)
