Which catfish would be best?

[Apricot_Rain]

I have started a new 29-gallon tank. So far I have 5 zebra danios and a dwarf gourami in there. In the future I would like to add a rainbow shark and some sort of catfish. I am really in love with the pictus but I am afraid it will be a menace to my smaller fish. I would like to harbor only one catfish so corys are out of the question.

Would a pictus work fine in this tank? If not, what other cat fish would be good?

The red shark will also be a menace to your small fish and the tank is too small for one as well as the pictus. They are recommend for nothing under 55 gallon. sorry

The only catfish suitable for 29g would smaller plecos and cories

I would add a small school of cories for catfish, but as for the Shark need a tank bigger then your 30, he may be okay in a 40 (thats what I have mine in, but hes a baby) hopefully I can get him into a bigger tank in the future
