Re: Feather fin catfish question

S: ...so I got some shrimp pellets and now I realize that I don't know how much I should feed, or how often I should feed them. It seems most people feed them twice a day; however, every time I've had live-bearer fry in my tanks, I end up feeding them 3-4 times/day. I don't know if it's the same ...

Re: Feather fin catfish question

Feed lightly in such a small tank.
Lightly as in a couple pellets/day? The only catfish I've had previously were some Corys and they just ate what fell to the bottom of my tank. Thank you!

Regarding the 55G your hopefully getting you could add some of the bio media from the 15G (assuming that's ...

Hi guys!

I was given four of these Feather Fin catfish, the biggest is just under 2" and the smallest is just under an 1". Well, since I'm learning as I go, I realized that it mentions that they can eat sinking pellets, so I got some shrimp pellets and now I realize that I don't know how much I ...

Striped looking catfish?

I was in Walmart today looking for a Molly for the school's tank and after awhile and two trips to customer service, I returned with the Molly, a black snail and four catfish they said were the Lace cats, but they obviously are not as they had two in there and these four do not match. So I now have ...

Re: Pictus Cats with Rainbow shark?

First and foremost, thank you all for your help!

Mats: According to everything I've read on Rainbow Sharks, when they are small they generally only show aggression towards each other, but as they get larger they begin to stake territories and as such any fish entering it's territory tend to become ...

Re: Pictus Cats with Rainbow shark?

It's about 20 X 14 X 13. give or take.

Hi!

Well, I'm new to any catfish outside of the cory cats I had in my small tanks (10 gal and less) and I recently got a rainbow shark (also known as red finned shark) to put in my 15 gallon dorm tank. It's almost done cycling as I used all my old aquaria supplies (rocks, filters, plants, etc.) and ...
