Question

The Catfish Hi, I purchased a catfish yesterday and want to learn more about it's diet, habitat, and background information. The problem is, I don't know what kind of catfish it is. Can you help me classify its species? Thank you

Answer
Hi Ruben,
One of the really cool things about catfishes is that there are so many kinds (3000+ species). Unfortunately, that makes it really challenging to identify one just from a photo. Sorry.
