i would really really really like to see my Niger cat get large. And the sooner the better ...

he is about 5-6" and "skinny"

if i were to move him into my 180, he could stretch out and grow as quick as possible

would you trust him with these fish:
15" CK
14" Mono
13", 7" Ocell
24" Silver Aro
14" TSN

Niger cats are pretty good with practically any fish and yes putting a fish in a larger setting will get it to grow quicker (the larger the better) and it depends on the kind of pellets your feeding him and other foods he eats and how stressed he could get (not saying he is) or if he gets sick, water quality might make a difference but not one thats to big just keep water at good and you'll be fine there. And on how much you feed him does make differences in growth as well just make sure you don't over feed or make him obese. But other than that thats really all the ways that could effect a fishes growth.
 
the tsn and the big p-bass are my bets if anything would go wrong..
 
Some of those fish have some pretty big mouths, I would wait until he gets a little bigger and fatter :)
 
Wait till he gets a little bigger.
