I didn't realize pictus were like that!! Thanks for pointing that out Dave!daveedka said:Although I agree with the bucket idea, 1/2-3/4 inch will not be safe with your pictus, especially if he has already practiced hunting. when he grows, nothing in the tank under 1" will be safe, and anything under 2 will be in danger if the cat isn't fed very well. Awesome fish, hard on guppies.
