So I bought this guy Friday at my lps. He was healthy and very active at the store. Within an hour of adding him to my tank he became lethargic and acting strange. I checked my tank parameters before I went out and bought a new fish for my already established 55 gal tank. 0 ammonia. 0 nitrates...

I'm thinkin of bringing it back to the shop. He's eaten two fish already. He has grown way faster than I expected. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Bought this guy from my lfs a few months ago. He was labeled a stone catfish and the worker said they don't get over six inches. He has grown very quickly and I'm concerned he may get too big. I tried to research him but haven't had much luck. Anyone know what kind of catfish this is? Sent...

I get those confused. Both showed low.

I've had it for 3 or 4 months.

Dinosaur and senegal are the same thing. The can get much bigger in the wild but they usually max out at around 8-12 in aquariums.

Yeah I've kept a close eye on him. I'm worried a bit about his growth rate. If he outpaces my peacocks there could be problems lol.

I don't think he is under pressure from aggression. They don't display the much aggression because I have the tank layout with plenty of holes and territory. When I checked my water last week my ammonia was 0 and nitrites and nitrates were negligible.

It's probably around 3-4 inches. Still pretty small but he is growing very fast. That yellow is one of my favorites in my tank. I like my blue more but he is shy and won't let me get a good picture lol

That's a senegal bichir. One of my favorite fish.

Thanks. I'm wanting to change the lighting to try to bring out my blue's color. When I wake up in the morning he is very dark blue and by the time I get home he has lost all that color and is a pale blue. Any suggestions?

My senegal is pretty small. He may be 3 inches. I was given a canister filter tonight and set it up. I adjusted the intake so the pull wasn't very strong but I didn't expect the senegal to swim up the intake tube. I didn't realize he was missing until I fed and he didn't come out to eat. About...

This is my tank. 55 gal peacock cichlids. One featherfin named Chunk and a senegal bichir.

I see. So maybe I should just focus more on the Peacocks?

I didn't think I'd picked any full herbivores in there. I looked for carnivores and omnivores. Which are herbivores?

Hi guys. I'm fairly new to aquariums. I've had a few growing up but I didn't really know what I was doing with them. I bought a 55 gallon and want to do a mixed all male Cichlid tank. I've read up in them but I'd like input on my stocking choices before I make them. As I said, I'm kinda new to...
