Thoughts on other fish to add to 180g?

Are you more into big fish or little fish?

I like larger fish, I wanted this to be a "catfish/oddball" tank. The red spot sevrums are a peaceful centerpeice fish.

Maybe I can sell the Eclipse cats and get a large school of pictus, a rafael cat, featherfin squeaker. The pictus would be active enough to take the place of a school of smaller fish.

How about odd ball catfish? Look up chaca chaca catfish and gulper catfish. Those are some odd ball catfish.

Wallace’s shoehead catfish too.

So seemingly I should get rid of the sun catfish?

If you want smaller fish then yes. Personally I wouldn’t because I love them.

Ok, I do like them because they are super active. After researching it seems a lot of folks pair them with SA/CA cichlids too. I picked up a Rafael cat today as well.

Striped or spotted

Striped

Excellent choice, the striped get a bit bigger but they are more beautiful than the spotted if you ask me.
