A very large catifsh very similar to the much larger Red Tail Catfish. When it is young it has a nice marble pattern but as it gets larger this pattern fades and turns into a dark brown. Will readily accept live food. Good mechanical filtration is needed as the Marble Catfish is a very messy eater. mixes well with large non aggressive fish.
