What kind of south amerccan catfish can I keep in a 29 gallon?

Off the top of my head: bumblebee cats, banjo cats, and oil cats.

All stay pretty small and are quite peaceful.

add Corydoras, Aspidoras, Lepthoplosternum, Otocinclus, Common Bristlenose (Ancistrus cf cirrhosus), Ancistrus sp L144, the smaller Rineloricaria species, Sturisomatichthys, Hypoptopoma spp, Panaque maccus, smaller Farlowella spp, Sturisoma aureum, Trichomycterus, Tatia spp, Centromochlus spp, Trachelyichthys spp to that list

If it's a standard 30 x 12 x 18 (L x W x H) size 29g tank, you can keep most fish that grow to about 6". I'd stay under 5" to give you some extra margin.

You should be able to use the search feature: www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/search.php to search for fishes of a certain side - you can also reduce the results by adding family, genus, temperature and pH limits that will cut down the species that aren't suitable or you are not interested in - the more detailed you make it, the fewer species you will get.

I believe I just got "pwned."

Well, maybe you were "pwned" but a standard 29H is only suitable for SA Catfishes that are fairly small and sidguppy did give you many viable options.
What answer did you want? The one that satisfies or the answer that is true?
