my favorite cat which I hope to own one day if I ever have a big enough tank. The electric catfish! I think think they are great looking and entertaining. A sausage with a face.

My favorite catfish is the ancistrus; they're really cute and friendly, and mine stays in the open a lot.

Synodontis grandiops. There's nothing like their interaction when you have a nice sized school of them.

I like Rhino pleco and Mango plecos. I'm getting more interested in small plecos like Otocinclus and Parotocinclus.... so my tastes may soon change. :-)

I think mines would have to be my Dwarf African Giraffe Catfish. You get the look of a giant catfish in a more manageable size. Not got any pictures of him . . . Yet
