yet again more catfish to my collection

[sauroid]

What do you feed yours? And how long did it take to grow that large? The largest one is just a hair under 4" and the smallest one is about 3.5"ish.

same as what i feed the cichlids, redtail gourami and silver dollars in the tank. i.e. hikari cichlid gold, tubifex worms, feeder guppies/mollies (CB), f/t krill. i dont know exactly which of the above it feeds on but it is plump and certainly growing very well.

my first M. leucophasis attained 12" in almost two years, my present one has been with me for about nine months and i got it at 1.5", and is now more than six inches.

Do you have any pictures? I feed my other cats a diet of Fresh thawed Tilapia, Cichlid Gold pellets, and earthworms. I see the smallest take a pellet once in a while, bu nothing more than that for visible feeding during the day.

will try to take pics and post em.
