wondering how big shovelnose catfish get and what they eat

 

[rumblesushi]

there are many types of shovelnose catfish.

In all likelyhood you have a lima or tiger shovelnose.

Lima gets maybe a foot and a half, a TSN gets 3 or 4 foot.

i was wondering how big tigers got

 

[dark stranger]

my lfs has a shovelnose but the name tag doesn't tell what kind it is and i was in a hurry so i didn't have time to ask.
it was about 4-6 inchs and was $25 i'm wondering if that is a good or bad price.
thanks

Thats the right price for either the two. I have two and paid 20 for the Lima nd 30 for the tiger. Tigers can get to be well over 36". The Limas may get to be arounf 12-15"

my tiger was $15.95 at 3"

Yeah tigers grow fast.

Limas will get 14-18 inches depending on who you ask, mine are on their way towards 18 hopefully they slow down soon.
