Before you choose from this collection
Every catfish and pleco on this page is a live fish held in our own system before dispatch — not a stock photo. We stock corydoras, bristlenose and fancy L-number plecos, synodontis, and other catfish, with new imports landing most weeks.
Catfish ship in oxygen-charged bags inside an insulated box, dispatched Wednesday for Thursday delivery with a licensed live-animal courier so your fish never sits over a weekend. Every order carries our live arrival guarantee: photograph any problem in the unopened bag within 2 hours and we refund or replace.
Catfish and plecos are the workers of the aquarium — bottom-dwellers that forage, graze algae and add real character. Sizes range from 3 cm dwarf corys to plecos that need a very large tank, so read the individual care guides linked below and match the adult size to your setup before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Partly. Bristlenose plecos and otocinclus genuinely graze algae, and corydoras hoover up leftover food from the substrate — but none of them are a substitute for water changes and filtration. They also need their own food; a 'clean-up crew' still has to be fed sinking wafers, algae tabs or vegetables.
