Asian and South American Catfish

So would a Juruense be good?

I wouldnt risk a $200-600 fish by housing it with a rtc

^which fish are you talking about Andy?

 

[wayne the pain]

Just for the record, the albino ARTC will not be the true ARTC but H nemurus which is a lot smaller and no where near as aggressive, they are bred in Asia, for food i think.
Still not a good mix for a RTC which will grow a lot faster and probably end up eating it.

Juruense might be ify because they don't get very big and also not having it grow up with the others.

Okay so RTC TSN Marbled Pim-What about Clown Knife or Arowana? Any other cats?
BTW Juruense dont cost anywhere near $200-this place has them for $20-I thk you are referring to Tigrinus?

My apologies I was thinking about a tig. Both the clown and aero would work but you would have to worry about the areo jumping. Shouldn't be a big deal to keep it covered sense you will most of the time to keep the heating bill down. As for the other cats id suggest

ID shark

A very active fish so it'll add activitiy during the day.
Oxydoras niger
http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species_id=37
Flat head catfish
http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/species.php?species_id=262
They can live in temps up to 76-78
And channel cats, I would stay way from jau, and Indian shovelnose sense they are both pretty aggressive
