Catfish

Baby guppies are very small. Most are around 1/8" long when born. They are nearly clear with a silver color in their bellies. Some color foms of guppies will have babies that exhibit a limited amount of color at the time they are born. Most commonly this is seen in red verieties. All varieties will begin to "color up" or get thier adult coloration in about week 4-5.

Catfish do not swim in the ocean, they are found in rivers, creeks, and fresh water ponds.

For catfish some bodies of water are much more prone to have trophy fish than others. Small ponds for instance may have large amounts of Catfish but will rarely have any true trophies. Bodies of water that hold Flathead Catfish and Blue Catfish are much better places to fish for a true trophy than a lake that only has Channel Catfish for instance

Yes, a catfish can fin you. The two pectoral fins and dorsal fin have long, hooked spines that dig into skin, excreting venom that may produce extreme pain, necrosis and vasoconstriction (Tightening of the blood vessels). The vasoconstriction is present to slow down the speed at which the venom moves, thus enabling it to be more concentrated and potent. Also, catfish fins house bacteria, and a high risk of infection is present. However, despite all these risks, catfish finning is not usually fatal. Although there are a few cases of large catfish stabbing into a heart with their spines. Some smaller species of catfish's venom are fatal, such as the Striped Eel Catfish. Smaller and/or marine catfish tend to have more virulent stings, where as larger freshwater catfish tend to cause extreme pain and swelling.

Well it depends on the type of catfish. The mudcats just grow until they ate 3-5 pounds. Then the channel catfish that can grow to 2 pounds in just a year. Then there are blue catfish and yellow catfish that can grow from a fingerling to a full- sized adult (75-130 pounds) in just 6 weeks. They'll eat anything so they don't really have a guildline to what to eat so they'll get big. Hope this helped.

it is aloud for sure. not 2 much

fresh water. i beleive. i think.

It has skin not scales like other fresh water fish.

channel cat fish, which is the most common, blue catfish. flathead catfish,yellow bull head, theres way more than six, there's also forktail catfish, bull head, great blue catfish and many more

Catfish and Tuna rarely (if ever) live in the same areas, so no they don't.

You could try putting it in a fish tank (Larger type) and giving it an enviorment such as one like the place you caught it. For me, we have catfish in our lake, so you could try keeping it in a tank that is cold and let the algae grow a bit. Then, you could just feed it fish flakes.

There are no size restriction for keeping saltwater catfish in Florida but be warned, they are not as good on the dinner table as freshwater catfish so I have been told.

Yes, certain types of smelly cheese can be used to catch freshwater catfish.

well, try using a large wad of cheese in a pink mesh net. Worms; i.e. night crawlers and earthworms might work. This species stay on the floor of rivers/ lakes so use a sinker. Rarely come up for food and swallow bait when they do bite, not nibble. *Bullhead nibble.* Seen during the day, hardly at night.

Yes. Though if there is plenty of food on the bottom, they will not hunt. If the lake or pond is short of food, they will hunt for live food, such as smaller fish. (I am excluding Amazonian catfishes)

bullheads, channel catfish, flathead catfish, and blue catfish.

Thai fishermen netted a catfish as big as a grizzly bear, setting a world record for the largest freshwater fish ever found. A 646-pound Mekong giant catfish.

Male or Female? Many fish owners are interested in learning the sex of their pet fish. In some cases this is an easy thing to determine and in other cases it is quite difficult, if not impossible. The reason is the wide variability between species of fish. And with hundreds of species kept as pets, one can easily imagine that what works with one species won

Well in some states you need a license but mostly you would need a license

No, the term hibernate only refers to land animals.

channel catfish would eat dead stuff at the bottom of rivers and lakes and will eat night crawlers or live or dead minnows .Fishermen sometimes use chicken livers (which is a great thing to use to catch them).
