Description

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

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Spotted pictus catfish Recently bought one. Absolutely amazing fish. It's beautiful in color and healthy, fantastic at keeping the bottom of the tank clean. Hasn't eaten any of my shrimp (which is a plus) very active even though its currently the only spotted catfish in the tank. Unfortunately it was the only one in the store, but I am looking forward to going back and getting a few more since they are a community fish. Definitely a beautiful fish to add it your tank
