Hi everyone!
I've had a bit of a nightmare this evening, today I bought a baby catfish, believed to be a Brittlenose, but unsure at this early stage, as she's only 1" long.
I have a Juwel Vision 180 tank, with the internal Compact H filter and heater.
Somehow she managed to wiggle her way into the heater part of the filter, so I have had all the filter pads, the pump the heater and the divider out to TRY and fish her out with a net. It took about twenty minutes, but eventually managed to catch her. I feel like a really bad mother!!!
I am looking for advice on how to fish proof my filter without impeding the flow etc...
Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks in advance
