I just got a 5 to 6 inch shovelnose catfish,he wont eat bloodworms or flake, I tried feeding small pieces of hotdog as well. I am going to get some smaller feeder fish tonight but what's the best to feed him on a regular basis. Thanks

Limas do great in groups so you would be best to get 2-3 more which will be fine in a 150G until they get to about 12" and then they will need a bigger tank. They will take things like prawns, shrimp and bits of dead fish like tilipia.I live in the US he's in my 150 gallon ill be building a huge tank in a year or so but what kind of pellets and would they be available at my lfs. He's a Lima shovelnose and I had him for 4 days so sure its been 5 days since he ate. What kind of prepared foods should I try.
Fully grown a tiger would bully it. I think your best to stick to limas while you only have a 150G. A tiger will need a tank atleast 16x8x8 feet. Limas are great little cats anyway.What about adding a tiger shovelnose that's what I meant to get would they be good together
They should be but IMO its best to wait till you have a sutable tank because they are quite fast growing when young.Would they be ok together until the tiger got bigger then him
