Hello everybody this is my first post on Planet Catfish. I'm not new to the fish keeping hobby but I would like to learn more about catfish. I find them very interesting and I like their prehistoric look that some species have. I had a couple Otto's that lasted about two years and yesterday I replaced them with a Rubber Nose Pleco. Right now he is a little more than 1 inch long and doing fine. He lives in a 30 gallon eclipse tank with 11 Cardinal Tetras and 9 Rummy News Tetras. I have an all gravel substrate with live plants. In a couple of months I plan on getting rid of the gravel substrate and replacing it with eco-complete. Also in the future I would like to set up a catfish only tank. So far my favorite catfish is the Pictus but I plan on finding a lot more that I would like through this web site and with everybody's help. Thank You!
