This is an amazing species indeed. I had one, which i got for around 300 bucks as a juvenile from Anand Parbat, Bengal Aquarium. But the fish never ate.
It was maybe intimidated by the community tank fish (some large Angelfish). The fins are so wide and aerodynamic, the fish could almost fly in the water
It is good enough to justify swtichomg to large tanks... space permitting.

Hi Jibran,
even i have one small upside down catfish in my 15 gallon tank but i wish to shift it to my Chiclid tank with oscar in it.... Dont know if it will be wise & feeding them will be problem as chiclids eats very fast whatever dropped in.
Kindly advice.
Also,substrate in existing tank is sand & bigger one is gravel,will it make difference.
Regards,
