Ladies and Gentlemen good morning. I have a sump pond as a return for my nexus pond filter that filters my fish house. I was going to put a few silver arrowanas in it but am now thinking to put another cat in instead.

Wouldnt mind any of your ideas what to keep in there. Pse exclude the list below which I already look after and are in the main glass aquaria:
Heterobranchus Longifilis
Mystus Wykii
Asian RTC
Pterodoras Granulosas
Oxydoras Niger
Leirius Pictus
Marmoratus
Sperata
P Fowleri
Asterophysus batrachus
Aguaronichthys torosus
Trachycorydtas trachycorystes.
Jaguar Cat
Tigrinus
Sturio


pse no hybrids (sorry neo!)
Would love a Lince but think the pond is too small for that. Maybe the same for a SA RTC or TSN; what do you think?
Over to you all thank you.
 
Before anyone queries the above they are all in their own aquaria less the more compatible!?!?!?
And they are not a 1' RTC in a 2' tank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Coolpix, I agree but I reckon it would be spoilt in the pond as would only be able to see the plan view of him. I keep mine in a 5' x 3' x 2' on its own. Do not want to risk him with anything else as his fin extensions and whiskers are really nice. He is on a 2 tank system with my Gulper cat as they are in softer water than the others.

How about .......Megalodoras uranoscopus (Irwini)?

A giraffe cat would be awesome in there, Auchenoglanis occidentalis

everyone has different tastes. i'd recommend checking out www.planetcatfish.com go to the family page and pic a family or two that has the shape that catches u'r fancy then go from there. it's a pretty decent appoach in my opinion.
