Shovelnose catfish types

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
You and me both bro, how big is your mega tank going to be? I was going to have started the pond last month but had other expenses to deal with instead. The pond project should be starting in may sometime if not sooner but its indoor pond style 12ftx5ftx3ft with a 2.5ft water depth roughly 1000 gallons I think. I need to take some newer pics of the planiceps and tig those pics above are about 2 months old the planiceps is around 13" I'd say now and the tig maybe 12" but putting on some nice girth now ~Trent
 
I am leaning towards doing a 15'x7'x4'. Not sure on the gal. but huge non the less. I have to come up with a plan to build it. I want it to be wooden framed maybe. Thinking 6"x6" for the frame, but not sure what I need to do it the way I want to. Concrete is out of the question. I want the front side to be two panes of acryllic with a divider, and I am going to build an office room outside the garage behind where the tank will be to house the filter and water and sewer connections. Going to price the glass, but not sure how thick it needs to be. lol. This is gonna be a wild ride!
