Giraffe Catfish
Auchenoglanis occidenatlis

Grows to about 18-24" in the aquaria (have heard 27" is possible but have not seen it)

Will eat just about anything that it is offered. Mine will not eat feeders. Sandy bottoms are best as large or coarse gravel can cause lesions on the inside of their mouths.

Great personalities. Gentle giants for me. Although some have had some serious behavioral problems with theirs.

What else would you like to know?
 
cool, yep in the beginning he only ate pellets,but now he eats everything, i love that cat, he is a bit aggressive from time to time fights a bit with my jaguar cichlid lol, thanks for the info
