How come in the fresh water world there are so many catfish options but in the saltwater world there are none? Or do I just not know about them?

I have 100% asked this question. We have several saltwater catfish species in the Gulf. I'm not sure how well they would work in an aquarium

This lfs has become a favorite for a while now, it's not very big but the owner is around my age and runs the business with his father, If you decide to buy something, I might be able to help you with the prices by going there personally and talking to him.

We were so afraid, yet so happy. Sometimes if the wind blows just right through the meadow, you can still hear our La La's dancing on the breeze.
