    Gday everyone, i have had this baby catfish for at least 4mths , its now a massive 1.5".

    Hes in a little tank in the main tank(4ft) ive been giving him all the ornaments covered in algae to feed .

    As i have 2x yellow labs , red tail sharks, green terrors , tetras in there
    Do you think letting him out with the other fish is crazy ?
    Do you think that the others will eat him?
    I have researched a little and found that they have armour like plate but would it be strong enough to take the heat of attack?
    :fish:

    it should be fine to let it come out and play.
