I understand that once my sale is complete...
  1. ...that I MUST use the 'report' function to notify the Staff that the thread is to be closed, as per TOS.
Looking to either sell or trade my two catfish. Wife and I will be moving out of state in the next year or so and rather than subject them to the stress of a cross country move and breakdown, I would rather place them in a permanent setup. Worst case they don't sell and I move my monsters with me lol. Both species get LARGE so please be aware of their housing needs and also that they are for the most part solo specimens (They will murder each other if in the same tank/pond).

I am primarily looking to sell them, but would be open to trades for ornamental goldfish as I will be keeping those in the meantime. I may also have the pond setups for sale in the future, although I am still deciding if I want to hold onto those or not.

Wallago (Wallagonia micropogon)
24" Approx
Has taken some pellets, but primarily feeds on F/T or Live. Have had some issues moving him to pellets in the past. Plainly put he is a murderous bastard but a cool fish on his own. I was able to put him in a planted setup as well without issue.
Price: Not entirely sure on this, I paid $300 for him at 5" so would be open to fair offers?

Golden Chinese Wels (Silurus merdionalis)
19" Approx
Eats pellets like a chow hound, and I have kept other fish with him in the past so long as they have a large size, but he does gently push or harass them from time to time even when well fed so I would caution against putting him with other fish (I isolated him because of this). No plants, he will re-organize the entire tank to his liking.
Price: Not entirely sure on this, I paid $400 for him at 4" so would be open to fair offers?


Local Pickup ONLY as shipping would simply stress them in the exact manner I am trying to avoid. If anyone has suggestions on a price let me know as I had really not planned to part with them so haven't given it much thought.
