Sorry if this is a "easy" question...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thanks for the great responses! Its much appreciated. Ill be sure to post pics when I get the tank all set.
 
I'll second the Ornate pim, I have one and he does fine with my Uarus, Red tiger mota., flowerhorn, black aro, etc.... I also have a Goldeila eques which gets about the same size. Here's a pic of the two...

ahhh man you got both ornate catfish i'm looking for those two you can't find any cool catfish around here
 
I really like the look and profile of those ornate cats. Are they expensive?? Are they hard to come by?

Thanks again for all the great help!

:D Actually, the fish that looks like a C. ornatus is a Goldiela eques. I made the same mistake when I first brought it home too.

The Ornate Pim shouldn't be too hard to find if you're patient, check Tropical Fish Distributors in the Vendors Forum. The eques was a chance find on my part.
 
Thanks again jconley, and for all the other responses.

I was just gonna ask what that was!
 
If the 125 is a 24" wide tank you could go with a couple Leptobotia elongata

Those things are awesome! I've been looking for some for a while and one of my suppliers got some in but they are WAY to expensive.
