Catfish are my absolute favorite of all fish and was wondering what types of catfish could i get with the tank im getting. The dimensions are 72x24x25 and i have already decided to get a lima but what else would be a good fit?

thats a pretty decent sized tank. You could house a lot of types if you went bare bottom with limited clutter in the tank... most catfish are lazy so they dont need to move much... as long as they can turn around it pretty much cool. I truly believe that If you fed a wild catfish every day 2 times a day in the exact same spot... it would never leave.
Ive seen it done with snook before, a small baitshop near where I fished had about 20 snook that would never leave because at the end and beginning of every day they would dump all their dead shrimps from the livewell into the water... and snook are not lazy.
getting off topic... u can house pretty much anything thats not gonna get bigger than about 28 inches. Id go with juruense... great catfish and dont get too big...

Ok so anything that dosnt get over 28 inches. On that note where would i look to get some good looking catfish. I havnt found a whole lot of websites with a large selection of larger catfish.
