Judging by your post you seem a bit lazy and unaware of the growth potential of these catfish. I've heard of them growing 1-2 inches per month. And they shouldn't be kept in a 5g even at their size. I'm look at my 5g i use to hatch fry and I couldn't imagine 2 rtc, an endli, and a bgk in there. I recommend you buy a 100g (or larger) tank or pond to grow them out in then eventually put them a large pond.
 
Perhaps a little research on the fish you are planning on keeping would be wise?
 
you obviously dont know alot about fish keeping and im assuming you just got into the hobby, you have no business keeping those fish in a 5 gallon tank. I doubt your going to get a pond and you're just saying that to try to ease peoples concerns and annoyances. just take them all back and get some tetras.

you're probably going to say "awwwww i wanna keep them" but you shouldnt.

if you do THEY NEED MEAT they are carnivores

Post like this send me it to a whirling torrent of P*%$ED OFF you can not even imagine. Dude Look, your fish are carnivores and REQUIRE meat as a part of a HEALTHY diet. As stated before you tank is extremely under sized for ANY 1 of those fish much less 4. Take them back and maybe do a little research next time before you buy fish! :mad::wall:
 
Whatever people... ok relax... I'll go buy meat pellets and u wanna see my pond? I'll go take some photos tomorrow or something... relax man....
