sooo i am looking to get some suggestions on a catfish that can live in a 240gal for life (not cramed in) and can be house with pbass. I am in the process of putting together everything for my new tank so it's slowly in the process of being set-up.

Part of the deal I made with my hubby for spending part of the tax return on the tank was that I get a catfish in it. He picked pbass and the rest of the stock list is in the air. I love catfish and have owned plenty of them, but I know there are a ton of cool cats out there and i am intrested to see suggestions fellow mfk'rs have on a cool cat for my tank? :D
 
4-line pim. mine is pushing a foot and really beefy. i have had him 15 years. just give him a cave that you can see in as they like to hide. megalodorus (irwini) might work depending on your foot print.
 
I will look those both up! =) Thanks! Footprint is: 8x2x2
 
Florida Brown Bullhead! Don't even need to buy one, just catch one :) (I know seagrest had them for sale listed as midnight catfish). But really they're awesome monster catfish!
