I have one albino chanel cat and don't understand why every body said they was agro mine dosnt bother any body and he is hiting the ten inch mark the only fish he has a problem with is my lace cat only because the lace cat is a jerk lol but gets along with every body else in the tank that includes 2 lima shovel nose 1 oscar 2 pbass 2 silver dollars soon to be moved 1 gold fish lol also soon to be moved 1 pictis cat and 1 6 inc angel fish also to be moved and he is always been this nice since I got him at 1 and a half inches. Yes he's a food vac but let's the other fish eat then he eats mabe I just got a nice one but I have kept wild caught chanels as well and they were not agro either. This was more of a rant than I wanted and I apologize for that but this was just my observation and I had to get it out there. I do understand that just like any living animal fish do have diff personalitys and if I offended any body I am sorry.

Not to de-rail but my oscar just ate my new redtail cat. Add it to the arowana and that's 50 some odd dollars that fat jerk stole from me. To think that he was 4 bucks and he's cost me so much.

How big is your oscar? How big was the Red Tail, a baby?

ya i hear what your saying. Mine is actually pretty nice to other fish. even protecting his little feeder gold fish friends that were with him sense he was little. Theyre still about 6" a snack for him and he doesnt bother them. But he can be a bully sometimes. including breaking the 125gal temp tank he was in while i was cycling his pond. lol.
