ok me and my friend are thinking of buying one of those little pools buy intex and putting it in his basement/skate park and putting channel cats in it

i need to know:

how big of a pool?

how many fish?

what to feed?

and how to convert them from slighty brackish to full fresh or just how much salt to add?
 
i catch them in the chesepeake bay wich is brakish but where i fish at only very slighty so how do i convert them or would i just be better at adding salt
 
They probably dont take any special converting, just let them into the freshwater slowly.

You might wanna hopscotch on over to the bottom feeder section, they are big on catfish. They should be able to answer your questions

Really?? Well, if so, I would start them off in water of the same salinity, then gradually add less and less salt during water changes until you're fully fresh.

you can ask a mod to move the thread.
 
Depending on how big of a pool you get, you might have to watch out for the humidity in an enclosed space like a basement. The Doctor.
