VinsonMassif Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Do you mean Royal Twig Catfish? http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/sp ... ies_id=289 I have one of these and it is really awesome. I think purplecatfish on here has a few adult ones too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefish Posted February 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 yes thats what I mean. would one be fine in a 100litre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinsonMassif Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 What are the dimensions of your tank? What is the footprint? Keeping in mind that it grows to 8"/~200mm. Also what tank mates will it be with? I have mine in a planted tank with some large peices of wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tHEcONCH Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 These are great fish, easy to care for, and always fun to watch. I have a breeding pair (and lots of juveniles) in a heavil;y planted 1.2metre long community tank which seems about right for them. http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/sp ... es_id=1933 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
