Im looking for a catfish in my 125. It has to get 12" or more, but cant get larger then 16". It has to live peacefully with my polypterus, without stressing them out.
I dont want Clarias (stresses the polypterus), and i dont want a lima.
What should i get?
 
True, also want one, but i already have a pictus, kind of want something different, but will keep the pim in mind.

have tryed them, really not fun fish.
Wil just go with more polypterus rather than cats.:headbang2
 
totally off the tangent of your request whatcha about eels? or a nice sized royal pleco? those guys are easily obtained at 12'' though gotta shop around or be patient until someone from mfk sell their royals.

there are plenty of cool looking plecos thats better looking than commons and would be a great conversation piece.
 
im not sure y u dont want limas limas are awesome, but what i would do is a megaladoras ;)
 
The first two things I thought of were the Four Line Pims that was mentioned by HPIZZLE, I have a couple of these, and the Sun Catfish.
