I was wondering if anyone here has any 8" or bigger catfish pim. blochii? Or any bigger catfish tanks. I was hoping someone could post some pics of their tank, so I can get an idea of how to arrange my tank. My blochii seems to knock everything around. My catfish blochii and my pleco seem to not be getting along, so I want to make more hiding spots for them. Thanks!

I don't have a tank with the inhabitants you have, but I have one with plenty of hiding places...

If you follow the link in my signature, you'll find more photos of this tank and it's inhabitants.

What I will add is that my tank is planted, because I don't have any big plecos in it. Plants and big plecos don't go that well together.

The hiding places in my tank (aside from plants) are made from:
- Rocks (from garden centre).
- Wood (some from LFS, some from my garden).
- Cracked pots (free from local garden-centre).
- Pipes made from bamboo stakes (bought at the garden centre, cut to form a "cave" by using the segmen barriers in the bamboo as "end cap").

Note: this photo is about a year or so old, my current setup is slightly different (because I've moved the tank, which meant all the "stuff" had to come out, and I can never put it back the same way twice).
