Which species of pictus there many catfish that have pictus in there name they range in sizes from 4''-30''
pimelodus pictus gets 4''-5''
pimelodus blochii gets 10''-12''
pimelodus maculatus get 8''-10''
liearius longibarbis gets 30''
some will take algea wafers and all LOVE blood worms other foods like shrimp krill and fish fillets are good as we'll most will take flakes when young and a good pellet should be in all of these catfishs diet pimelodus pictus will do best in groups of atleast 3 regared less or any danger or competing fish there sorta like loaches except they don't get as deppresed as loaches when kept by them selfs the larger pictus cats do pretty we'll in groups except L. longibarbis but can be kept as a single
How big is it and does it look like one of the cats in those pics if its really active and is silver with black spots its most likely pimelodus pictus
