I've got a small (maybe 2 1/2 - 3 inches) catfish that's grey with little black spots all over it's body. I forget the what the species name is (I call him Fluff) and I feel really bad so first of all, can anyone narrow it down? (sorry, no pics) Secondly, he spends 100% of the time that I observe him wedged between two pieces of lava rock. He's not scraped or anything but he just doesn't like to swim or even peek his head out and I assume he only eats when no one's looking. (I've had him for about 6 weeks so I assume he must be eating). Is this normal behavior? or is it something I have to worry about? Maybe he's uncomfortable, I don't know. Should I look for something in the water parameters (i know my pH is pretty high an account of the well water: like 8.2, but everything else looks pretty good)?
Thanks
