Product Description

Pictus catfish make great additions to aquariums with larger more boisterous fish. Although gentle in nature, this active scavenger will prey upon smaller fish. This species can become less shy as it settles in and will come out especially at feeding times. The reflective silver scales and spotted pattern are certain to be an attention grabber in the aquarium.

  • Life expectancy is 8 to 10 years.
  • Max size is 5 inches
