hey guys from what ive read on here the lima is supposed to be docile. but mine is very temperamental. he will not and i mean will not let my id shark near him whats up with that? id shark very laid back fyi
 
they're usually pretty peaceful w/ fish not large enough for them to eat, but there are always individual variations
 
ya not all fish are the same, my friend has the nicest 29 inch rtc i ever seen he has it in a pond with peacock bass and oscars and jags and a small lima that is 12 inches whoch is always next to the rtc and has never noticed a fish gone missing, the rtc only eats the market shrimp.
 
they can be pushy to other catfish at times but can't do any damage
 
has anyone had any real probs with a lima being agressive?
 
Mine runs from conflict except when i tried to add another lima got a bit pushy but never really got violent , give it time and keep an eye out
