305 litre Tank.....First Cat.

Post by SWEEP »

I have a few Corydorus in my smaller tank but are just about to set up my new one.
Its a 135w/88d/76h tank and holds 305 litres.

I would like a decent Cat maybe up to a foot long.

Can anyone give me some names to look at in that range.

By the way Hello to you all. :D

Hi SWEEP. Welcome to the site.

Obviously personal preference is down to you, but here are a few larger catfish that I would like to keep in a tank that size.

Have you thought about rather than having a few big catfish, have a lot more smaller ones? You will perhaps get more interest from a tank like this.

I find interest in a tank can wane if there is just a one or two fish in there.

Your tank isn't that big and with some of the above fish you will not have much room to spare.

If the Corydoras are going in this tank, then you will be more limited in choice where predators are concerned.

The best bet is to spend a few hours on this site browsing and also visit the LFS's in your area. This should give you an indication of what you like and what is available.
