Catfish are Freshwater Fish and plankton is a term generally reserved for marine micro Biology , but they do eat algae and one type found in fresh water is planktonic algae. Planktonic algae is found in all bodies of water but the two types are somewhat different. If you see a lake that is green in color it is because of an algae bloom.

Catfish eat aquatic plants, animals, and insects.

Killer Catfish are ten feet long so they could eat a human. I researched that these are real river monsters in all the rivers. So they could really do some pain that will kill you.
