For a noob, im doing pretty good...

[FavCatfish]

For just starting fish keeping 3 month ago, i think i have done pretty good. No major mistakes, no fish death and i only returned 2 fish.

I started by being lured into buying 2 albino catfish in a ten gallon, then i found this site. So i returned them and got a few pictus. Less than a week later i got a 75 and have grown my collection of mini catfish very well i might say.

I know have 3 pictus, 2 SA Bumblebees, 2 Spotted Rapheals, 2 Stripped Rapheals, and a Featherfin in the 75. In the ten gallon, i know have breeding ghost shrimp for my catfish and i realized that i need a HUGE TANK WITH HUGE FISH TO BE HAPPY!!!

Thanks MFK's for everything that i have learned and for help me under fish keeping and minimize mistakes.

Lol, it's only a matter of time. J/k

Seriously thought nice to hear!

good to hear, i always hated hearing of people getting discourged after one or two mistakes and leaving the hobby. all though maybe its a good thing before they get addicted like me??

p.s. you started better then i did. some bullheads, and sunnys didnt mix well with the cheap ick filled guppies and mollys from walmart in a 10 gal, feeding ham to the catfish. takes time but one site to help you along your hobby is this one

Lol, sounds like back when I made that mistake of feeding summer sausage to my piranhas, the one that actually ate it didn't make it.

Heres a chance to show what i know!

I have the Pimelodus pictus, they max around 6-7 inches compared to the 4line whivh are around 12 max. All of my little cats dont get big, the featherfin is probably gonna get the biggest at around 9 inches. I am trying to kee[ them in the 75 which by my understanding of the inch rule should be fine, but im always on craigslist for a deal that sooner or later i cant pass up! cough monster tank cough cough...

Sorry everybody, i forgot to mention that i did have one fish die. He swam up the filter and had a fight with the blade and we all know the end of that one.

The inch rule doesn't always apply with monster fish
But dude, nice! 75 gal in three months!
I've been keeping fish for 6 years and going strong and my biggest tank is a 20gal D:
