Talking Catfish

Can you hear talking catfish outside the tank, and how loud are some of them?


I never heard mine outside of the tank, unless i took him out ;) (not advisable)

If you can hear him, from what i understand it won't happen all the time, and definately won't disturb your TV watching.!

Unless there are some others that im not aware of?

Talking Catfish, im assuming you mean Raphaels or other Doradide Catfish. I never heard mine outside the tank, but having said that i saw an 8" Striped Raphael at the weekend and the owner said he could hear his at night.

Just to clarify, mine was the spotted one, and in his 5 years or so he only grew to about 5-6 inches..

He is in this thread with pics.. http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showto...83211&st=16

When i inhertited this fish he was on his own.. Im not sure if that was right or not though.

BTW.. they are very nocturnal, so you won't see them much..

and a useful resource for you here... : http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/speci...?species_id=313
