Anybody know what a good temp to keep in a tank for catfish. I got my 180 over the weeked and its cycling now. Ive got a tiger shovel nose, jurenese ,ripshaw cat. I also have a proon shark and a silver arrowana going in there. Had a rtc but i was for sure he would eat the others as they grow so fast. Took him back to the lfs. Right now its set at 76 degrees. Would that be ok? Just to let you know they are all in a 55 right now till the tank is ready. Just wanted a little insight. Thanks

Wow man your going to have some BEASTS!!! look forward to getting a pond.... oh and for temp anywhere from 75-83 should be fine... I do around 80....
 
yeah that's fine. mine are all at around 80-82 right now cuz that's as low as i can get em without a chiller...gets hot around here in the daytime.
 
i have a tank with a tigrinus in and i keep that at 86 :D
 
i kept my shark around 86F, if the temp below 83F, the ick will start to appear.. Hmmm I dont know why... other fish is fine with 83F or lower >.>
