New pick-up..Niger cat!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Nice vid man. I like your pond. I see your oscars are as annoyingly greedy as mine. How long did It take for him to get that big. And is that long thinner cat a Sorubimichthys Planiceps?
 
I will get some more of her in a little bit. She is rather shy still. When I'm by the pond it will come sighing 4ft or so and check things out maybe grab some food than go to the opposite end :(

Yes they are greedy little things. They keep to themselves except when its feeding time. My niger has grown 6 inches in the last 3 months since I got him. But I didn't actually grow this certain niger cat, a friend of mine grew one from about 4" to near 30" in about a year and a half. The other cat is a Leiarius marmoratus or marbled pim catfish, a very beautiful fish IMO.

Very cool. Ive been wanting one of those, but I cant find any. lol
 
Nice fish derekp.

Yah, MqktandyI was just hoping yours grew, nothing like a new tank to get a growth spurt going. Also do you have any worries about the liner and doradids? or is the 45 mil to thick for them?

Thanks, I am also curious about that question.
 
I'm really not worried. It is a 45mil roofing liner. While ordering I was slightly worried but when I got it had to move it and than work it into corners my fears almost vanished. When I trimmed it up it was rather difficult to cut through with a lightly used razor blade so I highly doubt they will be able to poke a hole.....it could happen but I haven't seen any of them sitting next to a wall trying to poke a hole in it yet. Lol
