Looking for suggestions on adding a catfish or two to my tank. And which catfish would work if any. I have 4 SA/CA cichlids in a 55gal. 2 Jack Dempseys and 2 Green Terrors all are under 5". I also have 2 bristlenose plecos around 2", which I never see until I clean the tank and move some rocks around.
Thanks for your help.

Maybe a raphael?

Why are you wanting to add a catfish to the tank when you've already got it loaded to the 'gills' so to speak. I know they aren't fully grown right now and seem to work in the tank, but given just a little bit of time you'll have your hands full.

agree, that 55 would barely be enough for the 2 JDs. let alone everything else and then some. the top priority for that tank IMO should be a bigger tank, not more fish.

I totally agree with you guys. My 75 wasnt even big enough for ONE Green Terror and a J.D. - I'm sorry to say the outcome was ugly.
