Because I have seen your other threads, in which you mention a 10g tank with possibly another "larger" tank later this year, I would like to point out that unless you get a 4-foot (55g minimum) you will not have space for Pictus Catfish. This is another shoaling fish (a group of 6 or more) and it gets largish, up to 5 inches. It is also predatory, eating small fish. More info here:

It's just a simple question
 
It's just a simple question

And none of us knows what may be behind the simple question. You will find this forum has many experienced members eager to help before a mistake is made. There are countless threads from new members who acquired this or that fish and are now facing serious issues because they didn't know about the fish. All of us here prefer to make you aware beforehand, as it saves the fish and a lot of worry. In another of your threads, you mention bad advice leading you astray...we want to avoid that if we can.

Byron.
