So jealous that you can buy these pied walking catfish legally.

With a federal permit you can. Someday I plan on applying for one and of I get it set up like a 180 with three of them (wild color, piebald, and albino)... It's gonna happen, quote me now :)

Good luck, i've heard that they never give permits, but as said good luck :D
Wouldnt 180, be a little, to little for these guys? (I dont know much about them) but they should be able to get to 60cm, and 60cm in 180 :D?
Sorry for the derail, but hows your bullheads plans, going :D ?

Clarias species are VERY flexible and yes 180 might be a but small. But I've seen people keep them for life in a 55, not that anybody should! I getting a lot of negativity on the bullhead sadly, I'd love one but my 75 is a cichlid tank with catfish, not the other way around. Going to my LFC tonight so hopefully I can ge some more feedback there!

Whats and LFC? :). I'd definetly say that for 3 fullygrown Clarias Batracthus, 180 is not good.
60cm, in a 60wide tank :D? Maybe, you should look at some of the smaller Clarius species? If i remember correctly, some of them stay smaller than clarias :D

As said, i dont know much about these guys so, i might be wrong :D

Youre probably right, but I'm not going to discuss dimensions about a tank that there is about a 50% chance I'm getting in like 10 years :). LFC=local fish club
