Twig catfish won't stop eating my wisteria plant

[KyloRen]

I try to feed him cucumber, algae wafers and sometimes bloodwork but he just keeps going for the plant is there a solution to this? I just got him not too long ago there are holes everywhere on the leaves

I haven't really found a solution. More plants helps, as well as making sure the plants have the ferts they need to grow strongly. But I have had quite a few plants lost to the fish over the years unfortunately. I assume the holes are from the catfish and not say potassium deficiency?

Yeah the holes came from the catfish I watch him at night as he destroys my plants

Ouch - that's painful. Would love to know a solution myself.

Do you have pics of the plant for verification? Farowella shouldn't bother plants unless the growth is soft and dying.

this is the plant there use to be more leaves on the bottom but it has been eaten

I would say that the leaves on the bottom were dying off because of lack of light and it was eating them. You would see more damage to random leaves all over the plant if it was eating healthy ones.
