It is 5'x2'x2', very well planted with twice as much filtration as required, I still feel that it is overstocked though. My wife has agreed to replace it next January with an 8'x2'x2' tank (can't wait)!!

very nice tank and fish mate, if that big fella isn't a male i'll kiss me bum.
they all look in great condition, does that pangasius rest on the bottom often?, i've never kept them but whenever i've seen them in shops and in friends tanks they've always stayed mid-water swimming.
great video AD.

Cheers, I agree he must be male. I nearly lost him a couple of months ago. He was loosing weight so fast and spent all his time looking lifeless. I changed his diet to more fresh foods and kept treating with Melafix and he has put most of the weight back on.

The catfish either sits in that exact spot or loafs around midwater lazily until something startles him then you've never seen a fish bolt like he does, back & forth until he calms down.
