    catfish are my favorite ! i keep little ones , corys, pictus, rafael but i really like the big ones.
    i have kept tiny flatheads that i caught accidentally in a cast net trying to catch shad for bait .
    i kept him in a 55 for about 3 months then put him in my neighbors 6 acre pond . he was cool , and ate half the guppies in that tank , but he got big fast .
    a couple years ago i caught an 86 pound flathead on a limb line , i let her go , but it tells you how big yours might get.

    Awesome catfish!!!! I saw milliken fishing’s video a while back and was waiting for this video to see a more in depth video on both the catfish he brought you. I have always wanted to keep a channel cat, I always catch small channels around a foot or so and I always want to keep one as a pet but I never had the space to do so. I will have the space soon though, I’m working on a tote pond with a IBC tote and I’m gonna do a trash can filter i got the idea from your videos. I’m thinking about putting a channel cat in there that I catch and some of my other fish as a grow out. My favorite catfish I keep is probably my bullhead catfish. I’ve had my bullhead for a long time and he’s cool to watch eat, he vacuums the sand in his tank and eats all his food. I’ve gotten lucky with him that he won’t eat live feeders and I’ve been able to keep sunfish with him. My dream catfish would probably be a tiger shovel nose or a ripsaw cat. I have all kinds of catfish I’ve got Cory cats, a bumble bee cat, a upside down cat, 2 striped Raphael cats, 2 spotted Raphael cats, 3 feather fin cats, and a bullhead cat Catfish are awesome fish but most are nocturnal and rarely come out during the day, so I don’t see them much. What happened to the big black pacu you rescued? Do you still have it?

    Catfish have definitely been my favorite fish to keep, them and bichirs are infront cichlids. I need to try and get a jelly catfish for my 90 gallon. Favorite catfish I own is my synodontis hybrids (Eupterus×angelicus), although I have one that has taken out almost all of the tetras in my tank. Dream catfish has to be some sort of a rarer one, like a jau or a Flathead but I doubt I'll ever have the room for it

Oh I own a goonch, a Japanese wels, an irwini armor cat, and a brown bull head currently. Probably my goonch or wels are my favorites but I’d really love a European wels!!!

I remember it being quite the impressive predator.

    You need to cut out the lights when trying to feed the flathead catfish, I’ve owned one and fish for them and the one I had in my take would only move and eat the the lights where cut off. They will remain in there comfortable position until dark. I would also recommend getting some bigger rocks and making a whole for it.

    Love catfish. Sounds bad but I like fishing for catfish too. Wish I could keep a big ole channel cat. Never had a tank over 65 gal so all I’ve got to keep has been corys and a pictus once. Any recommendation for catfish in midsize tanks?

    • @SCFishKeeping
      @SCFishKeeping  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are a lot of good catfish for 65 gallon tanks! Pictus catfish are incredibly active and only reach around 5 inches! I also love Rafael catfish but they're going to hide a lot more!

    I'm an avid catfishermen and even though I catch a lot on cutbait, I have noticed the ones in my at home tanks seem to prefer livebait ie bluegill, bass, shiners, minnows, etc. But if they starve long enough I'm sure the transition to tilapia will work eventually.

      The Flathead i have is still pretty new to the pond! I figure you're right, if I starve him he'll eventually figure out the tilapia is food! But I might have to try some bluegills just to see if he eats!

    That jelly cat sure is pretty. Put the channel cat in with the bass, and start feeding the flathead live bullhead catfish.

      Or get a Raphael catfish they are cheap fat little piggies,and as tough as nails,trust me, survived many ammonia spikes,dont worry about leftover food it'll be eaten by these guys,they love shrimp pellets,plus they do great in a 40,and dont grow as much as bullhead,usually maxing out at 6 to 8 inches,like a mini ripsaw catfish,very peaceful and cichlids won't touch em,plus they grunt

    Great video just so you know at 20 inches those two catfish need to be in 1000gal and the lack of space can be why one keeps attacking the other also my favourite catfish i have is my marble x tiger its very interactive eats like the foods going out of fashion and like your my let me pet him all the time
