I've never really been interested in catfish before untill recently. They must be one of the most interesting species of fish EVER! I've got my Awesome Niger cat who swims upto my hand to be petted and then i've got my 2 little woodcats who are awesome. I've got my RTCX TSN who is so funny to watched as he snuggles upto a little syno at nigh. And my Electric catfish who is just amazing to watch at night time. I'm done talking now what do yout hink? And share your storys.
 
Niger's are really cool and I am in a quest to find more, but are hard to find locally. I really enjoy mine.
 
yup cats are fun. I had a clarias cat who was so fun to watch @ eating time but unfortunately he died when trying to swallow a pleco. Bought him @ around 3-4 inches and skinny, when he died a couple months later he was @ 6 inches and about half the width of my wrist. Will try one again when I setup a pleco free aquarium. Now the only cats I have are the various types of plecos I have and a cory cat that has started to swim with my group of clown loaches.
 
I just got my little rtsn and he ate from my hand last night.

That sucks but if you get another thats good.
 
yup definitely..my RTC are soo cool..even new to me, they really like handfeed by me..:chillpill:
 
Cats are definitly cool..all of them..
 
Tonight when I went to my parents house my syno euppies were "dancing" very intensively together. Where they pose swaying side by side with fins held erect and mouth open. Circle each other a bit...Tonight two of them briefly had their bodies intertwined together. Always hoping it's their courtship, but since nobody has bred them without hormone shots, I think they are just playing around. They never were very friendly towards me...but love their "dancing". For fish that actually are quite territorial, they seems to enjoy interacting at times as well.
