South American Giant BB Cat

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Tiny little guy. Probably about 4.5 inches. Pretty shy but snatched a piece of tilapia about 2 seconds after it hit the water. I almost thought the fish was gonna jump outt
 
Nice,I had been considering getting on of those as well.Good to hear that it is eating so soon.
 
Jeff Rapps has them.
 
K krichardson it's a cool little guy. Has some attitude too. Got all pissed off that the tongs ( moving things around in the tank) was near it's cave.


Plan is to do a 4 day round of PG but waiting until the red wolf arrived as I'm low on it and just heard it's no longer being made. Probably throw up a divider since it's a small 20 gal.

Hoping this guy really does stay at around a ft. Son and I have wanted a manageable bumblee since I got back into the hobby. But was never able to track down a bufonius

That sounds like my kind of catfish!
 
Without going through the look-alike kin, it seems the usual giant bumblebee cat bufonis. They usually don't exceed 8".
