hi guys,
can u guys please name all the catfishes that i can keep in a 6ft tank. also they should be big enough not to be eaten by an aro. it should grow out to not more than 30". i dnt want something like a rtc or tsn ,they are too huge.
also i will upgrade my 180g to 300 in the near future
thank you
 
tigrinus?
 
channel cat
 
If size is an issue got for a Tigrinus or jurense catfish, but tend to stop between 20-24" and look stunning. If not theres always irwini, pterodoras granulous. Very tough and hardy fish which will live with most tankmates.

Lima shovelnose also look good you rarely see them past 18" and dont usually cause problems with tankmates unless they are bite size. Theres so many chioces.
 
now i got many option thanx to you guys. there is irwin,tigrinus, jurense,marble cat, channel cat and also lima shovelnose. is marble cat the same as marble pim
