nice tank ad fish
 
thanks :)

any recomendations for food for the pictus? i have them on sinking shrimp pellets now
 
how big of a group?

and another question... i've seen a couple places that say they get to about 10" but others say up to 5" so to be safe im planning on 10" but what is the correct full grown length?
 
Pictus grow to around 4"-6" and a group of 5 or more would be fine. There are some Cats that do get confused with Pictus (your's is a Pictus) such as P. Blochii, I see from time to time with Pictus Cats. They aren't picky so you should be able to feed it just about anything.
 
mine is probably about full grown and hes about 6'' so i would plan for that. he loves eating the 6mm nls thera+a pellets but growing up i fed him sinking tropical crisps and bloodworms. hes never been picky! but he has got lazy in his older age, which is where the group would have been better for him. now he doesnt like other bottom feeders because he was raised alone.
