Aquarium Advice Addict
Are the catfish "regular" or pygmy? We are about to have a female betta and 7 pygmy catfish in a 10g tank. They are currently in a 5g (TEMPORARILY, I would NEVER recommend that to anyone except in temporary cases with frequent water changes like what we are doing!) and as soon as we are done testing our bio filter in our cycled tank (long story to all of that), they will all go in the 10g. I HOPE tomorrow or Wednesday.
Cory cats must be together. We had 5 originally, and then we got 2 more 3 days later. They pigpile, play, and forage together most of the time. They are so cute
Corydoras pygmaeus (Pygmy Cory) — Seriously Fish
Those are the catfish we have. They were mislabeled as c. habrosus at the petstore though.
We wanted catfish so much and when we realized that only pygmys would really work in a 10g tank since they need to be in a group, we decided to get those adorable little pygmy catfish
I'm sorry that your betta had his fins ripped off. Until you get a new hospital tank, change as much cup water as you can daily for him, and try to suck out the poop too! A new turkey baster that has never been touched with soap (just rinse with very hot water) will do the trick Squeeze the bulb thing before putting it in the water. It takes a bit getting used to, but, it can work.
