as a few of you will be aware i have been setting up a 6.5x2x2 tank. in the tank so far are -
1 x rotkeil severum
1 x BGK
1 x SAE
1 x L190
on saturday i am getting -
1 x oscar
1 x diadema acara
i am also planning on adding a group of maybe 5 firemouths at a later date.
anyway i had chosen sun catfish as my elected bottom feeders but have had a change of heart.... i dont know why and i already have got 2 small 3 inch suncats in a grow out tank so i am looking for ideas for a single catfish of about 9 inches ish or a couple of about 6 inches ish, this doesnt have to be exact just a guide. as all of my tank now seems to be central or southern american with exception of the SAE i wouldnt mind following this trend. ideally i would like to find a decent sized specimin as the oscar is about 12-14 inches and the diadema is about 7-8 inches so the cats need to be bigger than mouth size! i have the eoption of growing them out in a rio 180 but would rather buy a bit bigger if poss to save this job.
any suggestions please fire away
