Thanks Oddball, I wish you were closer and I would drive them over. They would be great friends with your giant pleco. Thanks for the species name also. My only hope of getting rid of them is a fish store.

Dang, There are two irridescent sharks at a local quiznos here, and I can't talk them into giving them to me. Their noses are all banged up because they are around 2 ft. and they have them in a 90 gal tall. I would take them both in an instant, but they won't part with them and think they are fine in a tank that is 36" tall 48" long, and 18" wide. Sad that some people just won't listen. I'll try to get some pics sometime. If only you were a lil closer to montana.

Ya know...there IS another alternative. Seeing as these catfish are raised for the food market...

Necrocranis, just be sure you never order the Quiznos catfish sub. :) :) Sorry, you aren't closer. "One man's trash is another man's treasure" Why do you like these so much? They have tiny teeth and little beedy eyes. They are cool when they are 2 inches. Petsmart says that they are fine for a 20 gallon tank. :ROFL:

I am in love with all catfish my friend. Check out my posts. lol. You'll be hard pressed to find one that doesn't mention catfish. Currently I have 18 species of catfish. Next year I will be looking to upgrade my catfish pond from the current 6 ft. dia 350gal to a self built pond with liner of around 8ft x 8ft x 3ft. That should last them for a while. My goal in this hobby is to own one of every catfish that gets more than 3ft. lol., and all pimelodids. Besides huge fish have huge personalities. My 31" hybrid is quite the character. Eats out of my hand, lets me pet him, and eats anything I am willing to give him.

Does that mean you are going to own a LDA065 monster like Oddball use to have?
