Giant Whiptail Catfish

The Giant Whiptail Catfish can become very large for most tropical aquariums, but is still a very popular choice for many. You will need a very large fish tank with plenty of caves and hiding places. Plants and a good flow of water are very necessary for success with this species.

Giant Whiptail Catfish Breeding: Although this algae eater can live happily with other peaceful large fish, if you would like to successfully breed them you will need to isolate them. The female will lay her eggs in caves and other hiding places. The parents will guard them until the fry are a few days old.
