Cat fish I.D.

[ktvj1991]

They're very easy to keep. They're omnivores, so they'll clean up any leftover food (flakes, worms, pellets, etc). Not likely to pass 6-7".
They are a nocturnal catfish, so they're more active after lights out, but they'll still come out for food in the daytime.
I have 3 and after they hit 4" the growth slows right down.
Also, they squeak and vibrate when you pull them out of the water.

Thanks for the info its really interesting about the squeak!!!

Sure. It's a good idea to read caresheets from other sites too - there is at least a dozen to try.

Raphaels are awesome. I turn off 2 of my 3 lights when I feed at night and I get to see my striped raphael every day He's 2 and half now. Hope he makes it another 20+ years
