**** BIG QUESTION ****
Are large catfish really a problem that effect many people ??? The ecosystem ???? Do they negatively effect the hobby in any way ??? I THINK NOT. Tell someone you have an Oscar and they know what it is, tell someone you have a RTC and they have no clew. Do you see large returned RTC's at every petshop, I think not. How about Oscars and Pleco's and Tinfoil barbs and Irridesent sharks ect...... I see a lot of them. And I love to hear when someone says "KEEP FOR LIFE" Whats the longest most people have fish before a total tank wipeout. Who hasnt lost a valuable / favorite fish for no reason ???? Its fishkeeping guys !!!! Go spend some more time with your kids and keep them off the drugs and spend less time on the stupid computer bashing "average" RTC keepers.
Sorry if I sound like an ass but this **** is getting old.
