Asian Bumblebee

[envious]

hi, iv recently seen some bumblebee catfish (leiocassis siamensis) for sale. iv read they can be aggressive and preditory but also there ok with anything that wont fit in there mouth. how big is that. i no they can grow to 20cm but they look like they have relativerly small mouths so would it be ok with swordtails.

No need to be rude. This is a place for questions after all.

It will be alright until it gets bigger then u will have a fat bumblebee catfish.
They r very carnivorous and will most likely eat them even if it looks like it has a small mouth

I had a pair of these.
They never ate my fish, but I never saw them, even at night.
Hid all the time.
