We dropped it off at the critter when we left the swap meet. I believe he is still there. I do know where there is another on that is bigger than this one. A small shop in Evansville, Ind has it and she is only asking $20.00 for it, but you have to get it out of the tank. Promise it will be alot of fun, just ask Jeremy !!!! LOL !!!!

critter has it priced at $150 its a beast though. Wish I could have gone to the swap I sure would have taken off your hands.

There is a misconception that catfish feeds only on carrion and spoiled foods. In fact this is not true. The main food for catfish at an early stage of development is small crustaceans, fry and aquatic insects. At a more mature age, depending on the food supply, prefers live fish and other freshwater animals and mollusks in the diet. Attacks on waterfowl and small pets have also been reported.
