So ive been waiting for my 125 to cycle so i can get a lima cat and some mates and all this catfish research has got me wanting to put some cats in my 55 growout/hospital/impulse buy tank thats been running and stable for months now, any suggestions?
 
gulpers are pretty much it as far as predatory goes, if you dont want to hear it dont continue this thread.
 
A spotted bullhead would work. And I think suncats might stay small enough for a 55 (though planetcatfish.com has their max size as 17", but I don't know if it is common for them to reach that size or not since I have never kept them or done much research on them).
 
thanks il look up sun cats and for the other guy if your gonna reply with an attitude pleases dont reply it was just a question and i got another suggestion so i am not gonna close the thread
 
I just did a quick google search on them, and the article I read said that they don't normally get very big, so I think they would probably do fine in a 55g.
 
thanks for the feedback, i seen something called a vulture cat and i cant find the site anymore, i think they stayed medium size tho, not sure
