Okay need to get some ideas for a 150 gal (72x18x28) tank setup? will be a new tank etc..
Was originally thinking some Oscars & Tinfoil barbs? BUt worried that it will be hard to feed a couple gulper cats because of the aggressive eaters?

Please advise & maybe post pic of stocked tank with gulper cats

thanks in advance,
Dave
 
Oscars and Barbs aggressive eaters? and you’re worried the Gulpers won’t get any food? HAHA Your just gut loading the Oscars and Barbs for the gulpers :D
Basically, your gut loading some feeders........
 
Funny, I know the fish & have one for a good while now & know what they can eat.
Not saying its possible but a 6" gulper can eat a 12" oscar? I did see on u tube one eating a severum & that was crazy.
hmmm well I have a 10 year kid buying a 150 gallon setup & wanting the gulper cats I have. I did tell him they would be good in a 40 gallon breeder but he wanted to put something else with them? I advise they can & will eat anything they can fit in the mouth.
He was going to buy a 300 gallon tank but it will not fit so now plan on getting two 150s.

Plan b

thanks
me dave
 
yes aggressive eaters meaning Oscars & Tin barbs eating at surface before getting down to the cats?
I know my gulper is trained or more less has me trained to feed him lol & comes up for his food. But thought with this tank it may be a problem?
 
if only a gulper had the means of swallowing itself whole, it would.
 
they eat everything i had one turn a ray into a soft taco
