I found this catfish about six years ago in a shipment of ghost shrimp, it was only about 1/2' long
A very cool looking catfish, :D [/img]

Looks like the whitest white catfish () I've seen, Florida's part of their range so I could see a baby sneaking into a batch of shrimp. I can't see the tail but if it's forked it's a total giveaway, because it definately doesn't have a channel cat head.

So how big do they get in a tank after 6 years?

He about 30" long, but the tail is not fork, a freind said it was a tran-lunic bullhead, thank for the help

Actually, that's a nice, healthy yellow bullhead ().

sorry Silurus..this isn't a yellow bullhead. Look closely at it's features. It has the features of a black bullhead, though it's a little off-color.
