Well boy did i have the shock of my life today

about 12months ago i brought a Horabagrus brachysoma that was about an inch in size,
a few weeks later while doing maintenance i search high and low for it but couldn't find it so i presumed it had died and been eaten.

However, today whilst moving my tank i decided to remove the juwel casing that i had just left in the tank but never used.
But guess what i found inside, A fat healthy 8ish inch catfish that had obviously grown too big to escape the casing holes.

I now feel a bit guilty as i hadn't checked the casing before, but also because about a month ago i decided to start keeping smaller fish instead, Hopefully they (5 fully grown Giant Danios and 5 Buenos airies tetra) should be ok untill morning when i can figure out what i'm going to do with the catfish ,
