Before that question can be answered one would need to know what kind of catfish you are asking about. There are so many different species that are called "catfish" that it is impossible to make a generalisation.

I have three bristlenose catfish, one old male that has been alone all his life, and two young females. when I moved the females in, I moved in three other catfish, a bit bigger than fry.
