  • Catfish ID??

    Can someone help ID the catfish in the pictures?  He doesn't belong to me, but the person who owns him doesn't know what he is.  Thanks.

        I thought it was a channel, but wanted to be sure.  Like I said he isn't mine but the people who do have him are trying to find him a new home.  So if anyone is interested just let me know.

          A restuarant perhaps?

              Its against the law or whatever to release anything that has been housed in your fish tank regardless of its origin.

              It will introduce bacteria/parasites that are not present in local waters that are found in aquariums.

                Hmmmm...send it to Mike's and let him grow it out in his monster tank!! Maybe we can all donate food to feed it out!!! Then, we can have a nice fish fry at one of the GHAC meetings when it's big enough!!!     I'll make the tartar sauce!!!

                      Yes...please, whatever you do, don't tell them to release it.

                      On another note, what's the eel-looking fish behind the cat in the second photo? Is that a bichir?

                        LOL, have you ever heard that old country song "Feed Jake"??? It's a tear-jerker, but you just reminded me of it FL!! LMAO!!! Maybe you can find someone with a nice big pond to throw it into (not me though). Then he will get really big and fat!!!!!

                            Yeah, I haven't released anything back into the wild either
