This is my favorite catfish I have ever kept. I got him just under 3 inches around Christmas. Now he's just over 6. I really like this hybrid. Just wish they didn't get so damn big. At this rate by next year he'll have to bed relocated. Sorry the first couple are a little blurry, they are from right after I got him

I got this guy at my lfs for 10 bucks. The few lfs's in the area had then a lot, nor anymore though haven't seem any in couple months. As for size this is the first on I've kept and 36" to 48" is max size I've read about.

hope you get a bigger tank than 125 cuz in 1 year he will be about 2 ft

i have a rtc and a hybrid my rtc is 9 months and around 19 inchs and my hybrid is around 17 inchs
 
I know it wont last I have a home for him a home when he outgrows the 125. I just recently found the short body rtc. Does anyone know anything about these, how are they created? Do they stay that short?
