just wondering what you guys feeding your catfish.. becasuse mine eat only live fish and shrimps. is it possible to feed them on pellets or other dried food?

Erm...can u be more specific ???
The term "catfish" is not like erm...guppy.
It covers a big and wide range of fish species from carnivorous red-tail cats to the algae scouring common plec...not to mention those cute lil corydoras.

So whats urs supposed to be ? Any idea wat it is ?
Tiger Shovel Nose...Red Tail Cat...

If its a carnivorous predator, then feed it life food and some dead ones too.
Generally, catfishes are bottom feeders which usually are scavengers. So they will eat anything that can fit in their mouth...

I'm more into plecos...so can't help u much on predatorial cats...

ya, sorry, mine is red tail cat. eats a lot and the water gets cloudy very fast. No alternative food for this fish besides live and dead fish, shrimps?

Dun feed them so frequent...just get a fish tat he could stuff in the mouth and get a big belly. After that let him be for a few days like 2 without feeding. he should be fine. In the wild they dun actually eat everyday...
Dun use those tiny feeders ler...

Hope u have a pond ready for this monster in a year or 2.... I've seen them close to 4ft long and I've heard reports of them getting up to 6ft long!!!

They'll eat anything really. Once u get them used to eating pellets, they'll gulp down even koi pellets. Not picky about food as long as it's got some meat in it.

One wonders where all the RTCs go after they get too big for their owners who buy them when they're cute little fellas at 10cm? One day some unsuspecting swimmer in some ex-mining pool or big river is going to be taken by one of these monsters... LOL

Tat pond or lake would most probably be Kelana Jaya Lake. Hehehe

this fish grows really fast. i used to feed it with live fish daily and the growth is really fast... ha, planned to keep in my koi pond.

Yup they grow fast but after a certain size, their growth rate shud eventually slowdown a bit.

Koi Pond ar ??? wah expensive feeders u give him ar ?
I think when it gets bigger, then it will be a big problem for ur kois...especially when it gets hungry

ya, i think so too. but is nice to have huge fish in pond.. ha. i tried to starve it and fed only pellets but it didnt take it. the rearing cost is high..

Well u can opt to get those feeder tilapias from the pet shop.
They do take that...either that or use market fish lor...cheaper.
