he has never bit me yet actually but with these fish there is always a possibility. I normally close my hand because 1 of my 4 big catfish will usually come up and try to nip my fingers.

i’ll be honest, the only thing i’d ever do with a fish is eat it. But that is a fucking HOSS setup. Nice man.

That sucks. I know how you feel mine got spooked and ran itself into the end of the tank and killed itself a while ago. I need to finish my basement so I can pick a 180 setup and then I’ll get another one.

Myth or not:

Holding a fish with your hands removes the slime like substance that covers a fishes body.

Is rubbing your 26 inches of fury under water safer than out of water?

Curious about all the things.
