Excellent! I have one too and LOVE it.
How much did you pay for yours? I paid $50 and it's around 8" I'd say.
Has it eaten yet and what do you plan on feeding it? I've had mine for about 4 weeks now and can't get it off live food yet. I've even danced thawed silvrsides on a fishing line (no hook of course) in front of it and it only worked once. Stubborn fish. It's not too active during the day but at night it really moves around. Please keep me posted on how it's doing as I don't know of any others that have these beauties.
 
I paid $9. Thanks for the info, I'll let you know.
 
Thats a great deal...I'm always on the look out for unusual catfish. My problem is that I see them...play the good doobie....and go home and reasearch them first. Of course by the time I get back they are ALL gone and never to be seen again...LOL
 
how big do these guys get? I have a four foot tank with a Gulper and 2 Lima now looking for more tank mates..
