Do you think a 12 inch Water Cow will eat a 7 inch Lima Shovelnose Catfish? That is the smallest and slimmest fish that I plan to put it with.
 
yes 12 inch fish and 7 inch fish dont mix I think the lima would become a snack. But i don't have any personal experince with water cows.... I still wouldent do it though.

I see. Thanks for the information. But one thing, you do have a water cow (Eleotris picta) and not a marbled sleeper goby (Oxyeleotris marmoratus) right? I just want to make sure. The pic in this thread is a water cow.
 
sweet fish! truly looks like a monster!
 
i know old thread but tongue that's an awesome looking fish! are they commonly available? max size?

yes i have a eleotris picta(water cow) not a sleeper goby or sleepy cod. The fish should be fine just keep your cow full.

Thanks for the information. What a relief. Does the Water Cow eat pellets?
