red tailed cats can be housed in a reasonably big tank.

paroon sharks are another story. they grow big, probably up to 4ft. Not only that, but they are active schooling fishes, which means they are constantly in motion (unlike the red tailed cat). In order to house such a monster properly (multiple of them, actually), you will need a tank size no smaller than your livingroom.


Speaking of paroons..When I went to my LFS on sunday they had a 20" one in their big display tank. They had no idea what it was so I told them it was a paroon shark and that it was a type of catfish that would reach 40" at a minimum.. They owner freaked and told me I could have it a half price..I turned him down..I really do feel sorry for the fish though..I hope it finds a decent home..
 
there cool looking
 
Those rtc are awesome!

I don't know what you guys see in those things. Why not buy $4 pacus instead?


I much prefer the RTC to the paroon myself.

I used to be a huge pacu fan... but they're so common, and they're stupid to boot...

If I turn on the lights in the store mine FLIP for no reason.

Watching them carry around an algae pellet is amusing though

paroons are just as stupid... and ugly. Hence my question.

If I am not mistaken you like red tailed cats right?
