In search of Leiarius
As promised pics of my 5 catfish, 1 tsn x achara hybrid, 1 Leiarius marmoratus, and 3 leiarius pictus.

The planter with the bottom cutout is 12 inches long. The white chunks are pieces of tilapia filet

It looks like the hybrid is at about 32 inches and the marmoratus at 28 and the pictus' at 24 inches. The oldest is 3 yrs old the marmoratus, while the others are somewhere around 2-2.5 yrs old.

At least I'm not the only one that thinks my cats are gorgeous
 
A sweet sight indeed. Are they in something like a 300 gal Rubbermade tub? Do you keep a cover (I would)? Why are they not inhaling all the tilapia?
 
Yep 300 gallon rubbermaid. Yes I had to pull it back to get pics it is a mesh tarp, I use a clear plastic tarp over that in cool weather and in cold weather I also put a hot tub cover and regular tarps over the mesh and clear tarps. They were blinded by the camera flashes and so they became a little stunned, plus the tilapia was used to lure them to the camera, but once I was done it took them 10 min to get all of the chunks.
Thanks TBTB.
