    I had two catfish when I was young in a tank that was way too small for them (but I was too young to know that)... They were territorial and the big one tortures the small one relentlessly. One day the small one went missing... I assumed the big one ate it.

    Many years later we moved to the US. While moving furniture and boxing up stuff to ship I found the catfish... Or it's mummified remains behind the cabinet the fish tank had stood on.

    There are hundreds of species of catfish. Some only grow an inch, some grow several feet long.

    This tiny creature is a catfish.

    This is also a catfish.

    I'm not sure what species I had as a kid. I could probably identify it if I saw it today... But I didn't know back then.

    That's a male. The female doesn't have the bristles. The theory behind the bristles are that they look like babies to the female.

    Females will always prefer breeding with a male that is already guarding young.
