Alright! Finally, someone else has one of these fish. I've got 4 of them myself.
Don't expect it to be active, because they just lay around looking dead while the lights are on - with the exception of feeding time. Be sure to provide it with a cave or hollow piece of driftwood to hide in. The smaller the better.....they really like to cram themselves in tight spaces. These catfish are primarily surface feeders, and they become absolutely psychotic at feeding time. They like frozen bloodworms above all else, and will gorge themselves until they look like they are going to burst. They will also eat any fish small enough to fit in their proportianately large mouths.
I hope you enjoy yours.......like I said they aren't the most active fish but they certainly are interesting and unique. If you have any questions feel free to PM me and I will do my best to answer.
