There are two Asian RTC's
Hemibagrus nemurus gets to just over 2', and the tail isnt all that red.

Hemibagrus wyckioides gets to over 3' and is the real 'Asian RTC'.

They're very hard to distinguish when small. I've tried from pics before, but I cant do it.
And I agree with Jeox - it will kill everything.

well looks like my qt is gona be its home till i get another tank or a pond. do to the fact that i have already orderd it and the lfs wont change the order is the price bad for the fish though
is the reg less agresive or the hybred im sure they will change the order for more cash. has any one herd of a dragon catfish and have any pics
