No catfish is an aquarium cleaner. There is no such thing as a fish that will clean a tank.
You can contain your 2 inch Albino Tiger Oscar in a 35 gallon aquarium with a 2 inch Pleco and 2 small Pictus Catfish for 4 hours.
Can you have three pictus catfish in a five gallon fish tank
No they are not.
If the size difference is sufficient then yes it is possible.
Pictus catfish are a tropical species and will not survive in an outdoor pond unless you live closer to the equator. If you live in the continental U.S., the only place it may be able to survive would be in southern Florida.
Yes but you will still need a heater and a filter. The basic rules for keeping any kind of fish sucessfully are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank must have a permanently running cycled filter. :- Every tank must have at least 50% of its water replaced every week. If you stick to the above rules your fish will stand a chance of survival. If you miss out on any of the above I can guarantee that your fish will be constantly getting sick and dying before they should.
Yes but they need a reasonable sized tank (at least 5 gallons for one fish) and a heater set on 75F and a filter running permanently..
