These guys shift the substrate for food. I've seen them develop lesions inside their mouths from being kept in gravel ... sand is the way to go for these.

ill keep that in mind. and ill watch out for the lesions. It wont be too much longer before this guy gets upgraded to a new bigger home. I had no idea about that. I love the way sand looks. I have sand in a smaller tank. but i dont like cleaning it. So i somewhat dread a large scale attempt. But i will for sure go that route for the health and safety of my fish.
 
LOL, your Pearl Catfish are sure fatties!!!!

yeah the larger one usually scoots around looking like its swallowed a marble. Unfortunately, one night i think one of the bichirs got a hold of one of the pectoral fins. And and a few days later. He is swimming normally but minus a fin.
 
awesome cats, my fave is the giraffe. I have one but he's only 3 inch at moment, hope he grows to be as good as that one.
 
awesome cats, thanks for sharing
