    hey all :) ive had a banjo cat for a couple months and i still see the sneaky fellow now and then and checked today if he is alive in his fav hiding space...
    i just wanted to see if anyone knew their growth rates if its fast or slow? and i take it if he is still alive it means he is still getting food and not getting out competed by corries?
    thanks :)

    @KennyG dude I had one and hardly ever saw it, then I finally found out that they like to bury under ground and they were nocturnal... I loved him, but my problem was that he kept pulling up my plants...

    i think my substrates a bit hard for him to dig in , but i dont wanna move him to my smaller tank with the softer substrate cause of the smaller tank being only 30L... but im sure as he grows larger he will be able to dig... but i have a large hollow plastic rock that makes a great cave for him and every time i lift it up hes hiding in it
