Hello!!
I'm very new to this site (reg'd just a few hours ago) but I really like what I see here... I've browsed a few topics/forums and it seems that the majority of the users here really know their stuff!
I've always loved keeping fish. I've had both freshwater and Marine setups with great success. But I'm curious to see what suggestions I can get for my 75g (4'lx20"hx18"w) freshwater tank. The pH is 7.2-7.4, the ammonia is 0ppm, and the temp is always close on 75 degrees. I have two large filters (one with a biowheel), rocks to provide plenty of hiding spots, and I always have 2-4 large (about one inch) snails in there to help with waste and algae.
Currently, I have a 8" Synodontis Eupterus Catfish and a 10-12" Walking Catfish (Clarias batrachus). When I first introduced the Clarias, the two used to fight frequently but thanks to changing around the decor they have been pretty good for the better part of a year. The two catfish spend almost all their time on opposite ends of the tank and aren't overly active except while feeding. This means that I have I huge amount of open space in the tank just screaming for an addition!
This is where the members of this site can hopefully help me out. I'm looking for suggestions. I'm looking for one single large fish that can be housed permanently with the two cats. I would like a predatory fish with some aggression that doesn't have to have only live food. The more unusual/interesting the better!
Thanks!!
