Large Catfish
Large Catfish for Sale
Large freshwater catfish are impressive, long-lived fish that make striking centerpieces in suitably sized aquariums. On Light Fish you'll find large catfish species listed by hobbyists and breeders, including redtail catfish, tiger shovelnose catfish, pictus catfish, and various Synodontis and Doradidae species. Many are nocturnal and benefit from caves, driftwood, or other hiding spots during the day.
All large catfish orders on Light Fish are backed by a platform-wide Live Arrival Guarantee. Fish are packed in breather bags with temperature-appropriate packs, shipped in insulated boxes via priority or overnight carrier, and weather-monitored in transit. Be aware that many large catfish grow significantly — species like redtail catfish can exceed 4 feet in length and require very large or public aquarium-scale housing as adults. Research the full adult size carefully before purchasing.
