If you like Pimelodidae (long-whiskered catfishes) and long barbels, look into the Leiarius genus.

My 2.5' pictus and marmoratus have ~4' span of maxillary barbels. When small, their barbell length far exceeds their body length. Same occurs in B. filamentosum and B. capapretum - when young their barbels are 2-6 times their body length - but they get short in adults.

Luciopimelodus pati http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/species.php?species_id=269,

Platysilurus mucosus http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/species.php?species_id=1641,

Platystomatichthys sturio http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/species.php?species_id=319

are all very impressive too.

I'd like to get a pimelodid or heptapterid in my 75 as the last catfish. Down to bolt catfish, four line, or goeldiella eques.

i can never decide with cats, they're all so awesome!
