candy Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 Hi everyone. I have currently moved some fish of mine out of my big 4x2x2 tank and now a bit lost as to what to put in it. Curently have a bisher and ghost knife and will soon have a buterfly fish. I am wanting a cat fish that wont eat all the food as we had this problem with a pleco and the bisher was not geting fed and was also being harased. Does anyone have any ideas as to what i could add? Needs to be calm and not to teritorial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ljtan55 Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Farlowella or royal farlowella or whiptail catfish? Dunno if they'll become snacks for the big fish though. They have the advantage of eating some algae. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candy Posted November 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 i was thinking about a wiptail but know nuthing about them.. will go google.. does anyone here keep one? is it very teritorial... Dont think the bigger fish could eat it as they are long. but u never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljtan55 Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 I've got 2 whiptails. Awesome catfish that just do their own thing all the time. Dont bother anyone and no one bothers them. And they're a lot bolder and livelier than my plecos. BUT better find out if ghost knife will eat em, could be like sphagetti to em Cool!! Bichir! What kind is it?

candy Posted November 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 I have a Polypterus delhezi Bichir. he was a prezzy from my bf and is one of my fav fish as he has such personality. I have a thing for bottom dweling fish my biggest prop is finding something to live in the middle waters. have been told congo tetras would work well... i like the look of the royal wiptail but dont want him to get eaten.. but then my fishys have not touched the tetras?
