Hey, when i first made this account everyone was telling me that 35 gallons was enough for a Pictus, now I'm reading that they need atleast 70 gallons of water or more. What happened?

So yeah, I wasn't around then but for sure... they get rather large and rather active sometimes... I'd say a 48" x 18" tank would do one long term. If you have a group (which is only really for when they are young) a 6'+ tank would be *better*...

Yeah, I'm only 17 looking for a job (everyone's getting laid off which means really hard to get into the local stores here) so I have no income which means my cats will have to stay in there until I get a job or until next Christmas if I get all the money I did the most recent Christmas.


Wait, I have a question do I have a Pictus or a Four Line Pimelodella Cat?
