I think a couple Pictus, maybe a a few synos I have a feather fin who is large enough to go in but I would miss him in the tank in my room lol I am thinking about a few petricola and maybe a brichardi syno and a striped raph. I love catfish they’re amazing and the larger cousin of the pictus looks cool I’ll definitely look into it thanks for all the input!
 
Sweet I wondered if it was a petricola or multi lol the hybrid is really cool btw I was looking at a Angelicus but can’t afford one at the moment haha
it honestly could be either. I have both, and thats old juvenile pics. The hybrid was gorgeous as an adult. Unfortunately i lost it about 2 mos. ago. My oscar knocked an fx5 intake end off in the tank and i found the cat sucked into it the next am. Poor thing was sucked in upto its dorsal fin.

Aw man that’s terrible. Oscars can be very obnoxious
 
Wait so the first one isn’t a featherfin/euruptus? Or is that just a different name I have exactly like that and it was sold as a feather I’ve never heard of a ocellifer
No the 3rd pic is a featherfin. The ocellifer is 1st pic. Shes a demon. Has to be kept as a solo cat. Agressive and pretty big. Probably 8" or so
 
Haha I actually currently am growing a BGK out in a 75 for it possibly I had mixed luck with a elephant nose fish one was super interactive and personable but the other super reclusive and my family is anti Bichir even the Ornate so I think the catfish are the safest route
1. in the same breath of say bgk with Jack Dempsey my jack almost ate my bgk. 2. an elepant noses look cool. 3. Damn rip they're anti bichir, I'm glad i could kinda help. Would Silver or Rainbow sharks be considerable?
