Asian redtail catfish, Hemibargus wyckii (black devil cat), bagarius yarelli, Pimelodus nigricauda , or a Synodontis Angelicus

there are many synos that would work. you could also do striped or spotted raphaels, pictus, and the list goes on. as the fish get bigger, I would personally feed floating foods first to the cichlids and then when they are distracted drop some sinking pellets towards the back of the tank or to a different side to make sure the cats get enough food.

are you trying to murder his cichilds?

I dont think a Yarelli would survive in a cichlid tank. I am pretty sure they need cooler water with much more current and disolved O2

synodontis asian redtails will eat everything that hits the water

Heee heee heee i was being sarcastic Ming caught it anyway, best catfish in a cichlid tank is your synodontis angelicus, or pictus cats...lots of them

I have a lima shovelnose in one of my cichlid tanks. Just be sure the fish are to big for the cat to eat

A wyckii would eat them all!! I think the lima would get munched by the oscar.
