Golden Catfish is the supplier common name, without a guaranteed selected gold colour. Reference truncatus occur in lower river courses and estuaries across parts of southern and southeastern Asia. Their published 42 cm standard length excludes the tail; the offered 7-11 cm grade is separate from adult housing needs. The collecting site and sex composition are unspecified.
Confirm measured holding salinity, temperature and water chemistry before transfer. Prepare mature filtered housing with substantial adult swimming space and an established feeding regimen. Freshwater and brackish occurrence records do not prescribe a salinity for this particular lot; avoid changing salinity solely because it belongs to the sea-catfish family. Offer appropriately sized foods for the verified fish-eating stock and avoid companions small enough to be swallowed.
MBI-CAT-023 (7 cm - 11 cm): 6 fish per bag; maximum 8 bags per box.
MBI-CAT-023: minimum 50 individual fish. Prices are per individual fish. Existing quotation and business terms govern shipment arrangements.
