The Aeneus Catfish has been a great addition to my 20-gallon tank. It’s calm and doesn’t bother other fish. I feed it once daily with a mix of flakes and bloodworms. It stays active and looks healthy after a month.

Easy to care for and very peaceful. I noticed it hides during the day but comes out at night. The water parameters stayed stable with regular maintenance. Would recommend to beginners.

I bought this catfish for my school aquarium project. It adapted quickly and has become a regular sight in the tank. The size is manageable and it doesn’t stir up the substrate like some other species.
