ok, i think i may have made the wrong choice for catfish, since my tank is all males, i may look into some other catfish, i don't think in the long run these guys will be happy in my tank. the current is very strong in my tank that i why i no longer have snad in it. they are great little cleaners ...

i've had the shells for over a year never any issues, i vacuum weekly, the substrate helps to keep their water conditioned, i'm new to these catfish not cichlids. i've also had synodontis hybrid catfish in there since its been setup, they have never had an issue with their whiskers, & from what i ...

thanks, i have some more i could put in, they work great for making hiding spots but does not look cramped!

thanks! yeah it was, it took awhile to find reputable sellers, here are some of the fish:

thanks for the info! yeah the tank is setup for my cichlids, i added the catfish to help with cleanup during the week, i vacuum it on the weekends. i'd rather they don't breed, that is why i seperated my cichlids, too many babies & nowhere to put them! i just want the catfish i have to be happy!

thank you, i will get right on getting some more!

thank you, i was sure i needed a group of them, i was thinking that too, that her agression may be coming from not having any spawning cichlids, i was so surprised that the female was this aggressive, i expected it from the male.

Another question does it matter what the new group consist of as far ...

this is my first time owning these, about 3 weeks ago i purchased a wild caught male & female, she was pregnant when i bought her. i moved them into my 125g. all male cichlid tank, the male catfish has no problems, the female however has been attacking the male catfish since day one, coming out to ...

Ok, thanks!

I have a Synodontis hybrid, that lives with african cichlids, I recently switched the cichlids to Hikari Cichlid Staple, my catfish is now eating nothing but those pellets, he is ignoring his shrimp pellets, and waiting for the new food, is it ok for him to be eating only this food?

i looked through the profiles, didn't see mine. that is disappointing to know that he maybe a hybrid, but he is still really cool looking!

i was referred to this site, i was hoping someone could tell me what my catfish is, i know nothing about it. i bought him/her from a pet store as a $5 corycat, he is now 7" long, i would like to know how big it will get, should i try to find another, etc. here is a pic. http://www.flickr.com/photos ...
