Right now this cat is around two inches, excluding tail. I've got it living in my 29g planted community. It's going to stay there until it starts eating the other inhabitants. I target feed it two or three times a day with Hikari Cichlid Gold. If it's eating anything else it's doing it during night feedings when i'm not watching.

Really nice cat, not seen one before.
 
Picture update! Some of these contain a special guest catfish that I normally don't ever see. I'm not going to tell you what it is. Enjoy!

I've recently discovered that if I don't feed the C.ornatus for a day or so one of the smaller fish in the tank go missing. It'll be another couple of inches before it will be able to eat fish I care about, thankfully.
