Electric Catfish

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Definitely a wise choice if you're looking for a community cat; however, my fat little e-cat has more personality than most fish I've kept. He eats readily from my hand every night (1 whole shrimp - cut into thirds and stuffed with pellets). I feel kind of bad keeping my guy in a 40br, but he seems happy enough, and he has a giant hollow log that he calls home.
 
The baby e-cats are relaxed, the shock its small, and juvenile fish are juvenile fish, i have 1, and its fine whit food fish (many platy, mollie, danio cebra, tiger barb, guppy, and 1 little Gyrinocheilus aymonieri), the e electricus normalli its selled very small, and takes a long time for growth, for example you can put 2 baby rtc and no problem, the e catfish use diferent tipes of shocks and need grow for reach a considerable shock.
Babys are babys and need learn and reach many mass for really produce more of hundred volts.
 
Currently I have a 6 inch E-cat in with a bushy nose and a small ripsaw cat. I would recommend giving your cats places to hide. I was thinking of putting a few platys or tetras in the tank to see if they could live together.
