this, a raphael catfish

IMO you would be wasting your time with a raphael you will never see the damn thing i had one and saw it twice in 18 months they like to hide alot!

i saw a chocolate mentioned, the only fish my o has a problem with is my choco i dont know if its because they are similar shape but he really doesnt like him!
 
Are you sure the tank is cycled? Three days is pretty quick.
 
raphaels are cool. All about how you set the tank up. I have one, fat as can be, whose 'spot' is behind one rock...i moved the rock to the front right of the tank and now he is im my view all day long. Also, he spends bout half his day on patrol...once I started tossing in sinking nls he has been much more active and on the prowl. The minute the cichlids start the tail wag when they see me or want food, he must hear them cuz he is out on top or wood bombim thru ppl. Funny fish
 
@ Lowcel.. Yes i transfered over one of the filters media and all right over to the tank and ran it for 3 days ..And he lloks great ..ill update a few pics in a bit! Also i am sorry i havent been answering the questions as i am very gracious for the feedback..
 
That's a nice looking Oscar and I'm sure he appreciates the extra swimming room.
How about a lima shovelnose, another O and some type of pleco like a L114?
 
I have more things i can add to the tank but that is his favorite piece..he has a COW if i take it out! lol and DBCb314 i like ur style i do want him to be the King!
