Thank you so much apistomaster I just got some decent grade crs s+ grade and am waiting for them to grow and that is why the question came up. Plus I have one sss in there that I bought also and would hate for him to get ate.

I was wanting to know if pygmy corys are going to eat my baby shrimp?

ok that is my last pic of them I know that the tank is a little small for the cats but they are doing really fine and not fighting. I hope that ya all like and want to comment on them. As always it is always a great treat to show ya all my fish.

some more pics of fish in tank

here is my 55 gallon tank finally set up and running.

I am wanting to know how often everyone cleans there tank and changes there water? A lot of websites say to do it once a week and a lady from a pet store told me that was way to often. She said to do it about once maybe twice a month at the most, because it would stress my fish out.

I do understand that the tank is a little small but I am going to get a bigger one when I can afford to I am going with what I go right now and am always looking for good deals on tanks. I was thinking would java ferns and java moss do good with then and what about baby tears and four leaf clover?

Thank you Dutchfry the catfish have been living together for about six months to a year now and the ocellifer seems to get along with the eupterus very well most of the time he seems to hang out with the three bigger ones. you gave me some good advice.
Thanks

Hi I have a 55 gal tank that I am wanting to set up for my six catfish and I am woundering if anybody has any suggestions on what to put in with them. I would like to get some plants to put in there but don't know what kind to get that will grow fast in the back of the tank and some good small ones ...

I recently bought a 55 gallon tank and am getting ready to set it up for 5 synodontis eupterus cats and one ocellifer cat any suggestions on plants and additional fish to add in with them?

I bought this catfish from petsmart but I am not sure what he is. I thought that maybe he was a Ocellifer but he doesn't have a hump behind the dorsal fin.

The only problem that I have found about him not being a ocillifer is that he doesnt have a below his top fin like I have found in many pics. Thanks eveyone for your comments and hope to hear from more of you guys. Btw what kinda cats do you all have in your tanks and here are a few pics of my otos.

Here is the cat fish that I cant figure out what he is and here is a pic so hopefully someone will help me out with it. I got him at petsmart and he cost me $16 and was about a third of the size he is now.

Thanks for the welcome hopefully I will be able to find a lot of useful information here and hopefully when I get a good pic of my cat that I am not sure what he is someone can Identefy him for me.
Thanks again.

I have a thirty Gallon tank that I have devoted for bottom feeders. In this tank I have 4 Corys that are some of the bussiest fish that I have ever seen. They are always searching for food and normally stay together except from time to time one will stray away but that is because he isn't the same ...
