Hey everyone after many years of searching the UK I found 3 bufonis at wildwoods near London, only bought 1 but the fattest chunkiest 4+"er.
Really looking forward to growing this beasty out. Photo from the car footwell:-)
Anyone got any idea on the growth rate and is the planet catfish info correct on eating fish his own size?

Super jeleous bro. You better post lots of updates man. Always wanted one.

Closest I have is the rhyacoglanis that may very well be a bufonius. So far growth has been average
 
Cheers dude, I'm gonna rescape his grow out in a bit, already dissapeared lol.
Really good colour on him too.

When mine gets some size on him I'm going to move his hides around. Laying a piece of slate on the front glass so I can see him more. Learned that the viktor
