White Catfish



This is a white catfish.

The white catfish is a medium sized catfish. It's back and upper sides are light blue-ish gray. It's belly is a silvery yellow white.

The white cats can reach about 24 inches in length. They prefer to live in channels, pools, and backwaters in rivers and streams. They live mostly in sluggish currents and mud bottoms.

Their spawning habits are like that of the channel cats.

They eat plant materials, but they mostly eat other animal life, such as larva and other aquatic insects and fish.
