yeah, appetite and growth of an RTC. these things get damn well near the size of 'em too with proper housing and feeding schedule.

Will grow very fast on worms. Also can get him on cut fish and market shrimp for some fast growth. When it gets a little larger you can go Pinky mice too. This will put some size on quickly. You will discover that it will eat anything and a good varied diet is best.

They are very nice catfish as they do not get to huge (About 24-30 inch max)

Take Care
