Hello all it’s been a long time since I’ve posted, I recently acquired a cat fish labeled as an India catfish And I just wanna get an idea of what it actually is. Thanks in advance
Looks like a female but still to small to tell, as for the eating issue. What are you offering, what are its tank mates, is it being bullied, what was it eating before you acquired it?
Could it yes, should you eh probably not. They are active swimmers that turn into thick tanks. A pair would do best in a 6 foot 125 and as far as dithers be prepared to replace as needed.they are awesome wet pets 90% of the time.
I'd be highly worried about the argentea and black belt. Both have a reputation for not playing well with others. If those turned out to be females that would help the issue. Which species are you trying to have a pair of?
Exactly and it doesn't help that loisellei, freddies, and RTM all look similar at this size. Dovii and managuense are easy the other three not so much.
