not really these days, it easily notice food during feeding.
 
Love the massive barbels, puffy lips, and hunchback! Such a cool and unique cat. Does he enjoy a massive current? I know these guys in the wild are usually found in deep water fast flowing channels and nutrient rich white waters like several of their congeners. Was wondering if you keep a heavy flow moving in the tank to help spur along a faster growth rate or are these guys predisposed to slowly develop and mature even in their natural environment?
 
i do hv power head running in the tank, but this fish never stay infront of it. But during feeding, this cat really enjoy cathing flying pellets in the water that get blown by the power head.
