Aquarium Advice FINatic
If anyone has had these white tip catfish sharks before, maybe you can help me out. I've had these fish for about 5 years now. Lately I noticed one of them stoped eating and hasn't been eating for about 2 weeks now. It's swimming normally, looks real sharp and healthy just like the other 3. I change about 30% of water every week and the water is good as far as ammonia levels (0) and pH level is at around 6.8...nitrates(0). I use stresscoat when I do my water changes. Well anyways, today I noticed another one of these white tips isn't eating and it also looks healthy and swims around with no problems. This one is the biggest of them all and I also noticed that it's belly has been really big for the past week like it swallowed a fish...hmmm maybe i should check on my two plecos I have in the same tank...but they are pretty big so I dont think this shark would swallow them. Another weird thing I just noticed today on the biggest white tip, it looks like it got an extra pair of fins right above the rear fins. I just noticed those today and they look like fins but not really. I would have to take a picture to really explain. Ill try to take a picture at night when they are not swimming fast. Well if anyone out there has had these fish before and knows what the hell that growth is, please let me know.
P.S. is StressCoat good enough to use alone when doing water changes? does it get rid of chlorine and heavy metals?
Thanks.
