hi i have had a feather fin cat for 1.5 yrs since he was a tiny (network cat) he is around 8 " and has always got a big belly unlike the clown cat i have i was just wondering if my feater fin has reached maturity yet? will it grow any more or has he stoped growing now

he is housed with a jaguar cichlid 12"
the clown cat 7"
and a p delzeri 6.5"
in a 400 ltr (100 gal) tank

thanks

Just did a google search and most site say 6-7 inch so i would say it is definately fully grown. Just to be sure take a look at planet catfish and make sure it is that species that you have as a lot of synos look alike.

Hope this helps

just for future reference can you go by scientific name? i dont know how many people call different cats network cats and theres got to be 100's of cats with clown in their name

) so sorry fishy411

the feather fin cat is a synodontis euperus and the clown cat is a synodontis decorus i will endeavor to use the scientific name next time i make an enquiry )

he is doing extremly well thanks for asking sometimes the featherfin picks on him a little but other than that the other tank mates leave him to his own devices he lkes to hide in the onion/long grass plants (i dont know the nam of thes plants but they are very long and grass like with big onion type bulbs ) he loves them
