I dont' have any pics yet. He is to hard to photo since he always hides. He comes out to eat but any picture is to blurry because he swims like a SOB. I was told @ a lfs it was a Midas Cat. He is black w/ sparse small gold spots. He swims, eats, and rest upside down in my rock work. I will hope to get a pic soon. He's doing great. He's grown about 2" in the last year and will be moving up soon (after tax time). If anyone has info. (specs.) on this fish that would be awesome. Thanks Matt
 
Sounds like the Asian upsidedown catfish (Mystus leucophasis).

10 - 4 Sandtiger, thats what it is. Thanks for the site also.
 
No problem, good luck with that guy. My Wal-mart used to have them, before I knew what they were. Wish I had bought one. They sold them as African upsidedown catfish. You know the ones.:screwy:
