Re: juruense catfish
Well, I did not plan on getting anything yesterday- We went to Baltimore to see the Aquarium for my b-day, and then we stopped at Exotic Aquatics which was close by. A guy on another fish forum (MFK) stated he bought one there Thursday- he said they didn't have anymore left; as that's what the store ...

Re: Tigrinus Catfish Heavy breathers?
Well, you've all been tagging along with my observation of it's heavy breathing.. came home yesterday, and he seemed fine.. was chilling, breathing like normal. Went back to check on him a few hours later, and he was in the corner of the tank, still breathing fine and seemed again, normal. Went into ...

Re: Tigrinus Catfish Heavy breathers?
Yeah, I am not really all too bummed though... this is the first fish that I spend a large amount of money on (other than my Frontosa colony) and it's part of the hobby.. My buddy is bringing in 15 2" tigs at the end of the week- he wants to see if he can grow them out an inch or so and make some ...

Re: Tigrinus Catfish Heavy breathers?
don't know if I'd go that far, just add plenty powerful bubblers and may be one more powerhead or a stronger powerhead... from the Taksan's video, there is a tiny, really tiny chance you can overdo :)) it with this (very expensive) fish; how much was yours? I got 8 months ago real lucky - got mine ...

Re: Tigrinus Catfish Heavy breathers?
Well, I just came home and he's doing better now. He's not heavily breathing, so I think it was definitely stress of the move. But I will be adding more aeration and current.

Re: Tigrinus Catfish Heavy breathers?
Haha. Yes I meant the opposite of what i originally said. I checked on him this morning and he was better and hiding in a piece of PVC. I will update when I get home from work. Thanks guys. And I will be adding more oxygen. Any idea where I can get an oxygen test for water?

Re: Tigrinus Catfish Heavy breathers?
My other fish do not breathe heavily... is it just because they are so sensitive?
Or could it be because his water parameters could have been different in his previous tank, and he's just needing to adjust?

Re: Tigrinus Catfish Heavy breathers?
I have an airstone in the tank, and I have a jet that creates current.... I know it's not enough.. But the tank I got him from had none of that in it.. It was just him and a ray-- and the tig had a little cave that he just chilled in. So I'm not really sure what's going on.. I am going to be moving ...

Tigrinus Catfish Heavy breathers?
Are tigs heavy breathers? I just got a 10" tig last night, and he's in my tank- but I noticed that he was breathing heavily.. I wouldn't say rapidly... I watched some youtube videos, and it seems that a lot of vids, their cats are doing the same thing. I know tigs are super sensitive, and I really ...
