Anyone own a channel cat?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
mines alittle over 26" was able to just measure him sense he jumped out of the pond for some reason. lol
 
about a yr and a half I would guess. Im expecting him to hit 30" pretty quick now that he has his own indoor pond.
 
hi just reading threw this and i live right next to the illinois river and have become obsessed with catfish when i found this web site i have a 3 month old foot long red tail cat in my 180 and a tsn in a 50 gal i juat got him yesterday. but we catch these fish all the time (channel cat) and they are monsters when they get big!!!! for bait we use chicken livers their favorit if u ask me lol and they are very strong fish and hardy too the largest i have seen was my buddy caught a 41 pounder it was a beast!! didnt know they were a aquarium fish
 
I've never seen anyone catch a 41 pounder in person! These fish definitely thrive in very varied conditions when it comes to large home aquariums. Mine is in a south american tank:grinno:
 
I have two blue channel catfish well over 2 foot long. They are in my farm pond. I also have an juvinile albino channel inside that is around a foot long and over 1 year old.

What kind of tank is the albino in?
 
i kept a albino channel for almost two years then gave it to my cousin. they grow super fast and pretty much eat any and everything. they are more aggressive than most aquarium fish.
