How big does a full grown Channel Cat get? Mine is about as long as a 10gal is wide. (i havent measured >.>) And i need a bigger tank for it and a Hybrid Bluegill. Any ideas on what sized tank?:confused:
 
they get up around 3 feet and can weigh up to ive heard 80 or so pounds,ur gona need at least a 200 gallon id say

Some people have siad they get like 700 lbs:WHOA: Is that true?
 
no, blue cats can get 700 lbs but its rare. Many people confuse blue cats and channel cats. channel cats get around 2-3' and 10-20lbs
 
Oh...Im gonna need a 200gal tank just for it? or for both the bluegill and channel cat?
 
just for it haha but the blugill should be fine in the 200 2
 
after the channel gets full grown, about 3' and 80-100 pounds you aren't going to have a bluegill, and blue catfish don't reach 700lbs, the world record is less than 150lbs
