Gulper catfish trio, ~7"

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
How have the gulper been doing?
**Which one? We have 13. They have been well, feeding and growing as you could see from the recent video.

And what makes them so hard to keep?
**This whole thread is about it. They have particular water requirements. They are sensitive to formalin. They are not easily compatible with other fish.

Would tank size make them difficult?
**No.
 
I mean all the gulpers
2 me they seem pretty hard 2 keep ALIVE
Almost like moorish idols (am I wrong?)
Srry 4 bad grammar on that question

AFAIK moorish idols are near the top of hard to keep fish.
Gulpers are moderately harder to an average keeper.
 
It depends on their size. A full grown adult at 10"-12" might be content with a a 4ftx1.5ft footprint but they do like to swim a lot in the dark.
