hi ihave a 72x18x18 tank with 2 oscars in it and i was wondering if anybody had any ideas of a catfish i could keep in it as well i would like a lerger cat that will not outgrow the tank any ideas welcome
cheers
 
Limas.

If it was 24 wide I would say juruense and tigrinus, but for your width limas are likely your best bet.

Depends what youre after really, could go with jaguar cats, gulpers, if you can find one hemisorbim platyrhynchos which I have been after for years but never managed to get.

What are tank mates etc?

Alot of cats can fit in the tank, personaly I would go with limas though.
 
well like i put in first post 2 oscars are tankmates but i've also got a ornate bichir to go in there so got to be able to go with them
 
Still say Limas, great cat, very active and very distinctive.

Have two with Oscars no problems at all.
 
synodontis cats... uruptus ...

cool i think i will go with a lime does anyone know a online site where i can buy one online in the uk

Check ebay, was some decent sized ones for sale for a long time, not sure now though.

Also Wildwoods I would highly recommend, got my Juruense from there and it was perfect.

Would avoid Trimar, sold me a complete dud of a fish that died in a couple of weeks, had a sunken stomache, blatently hadnt eaten in weeks (likely since they had them in) even though they promised me it was feeding well.
