Freshwater Fish Profile: Lima Shovelnose Catfish (Sorubim Lima)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
20 inch cb endli are extremely rare and id bet would take many yrs to reach that size. My cb endlies were always slow growing and mild mannered. Its the wc one that you need to keep an eye. Ive had pretty good experiences with mixing cats and bichirs. I say go for it.

Correct but Lima are slow growing as well. Possibly slower. Hence why I said end size difference.

Endli isnt going to eat a fish thats just a little smaller than it. I doubt predation will be an issues. As for aggression we both know any two fish will be a crap shoot

On a serious note I’m just letting the OP know the risk.
