Ok this might sound silly, but here goes...
A while back (probably almost 3 months ago) I was in the process of setting up a small 20 gallon tank. This was my first tank, and I didnt know what to put in. After a few weeks the algae started to build up, so I went to purchase a sucker fish. Instead of getting a pleco, I chose those rubber lipped catfish that get only about 5 inches long....
Well the lady at the LFS said I should use two, which in hindsight was way too much suckerfish for a 20 gallon tank. Anyway...one of them would always hide while the other one was present on the tank walls. Sometimes you would see both of them out.
Now, I cleaned the tank the other day and realized that I had not seen them both in a while, so i went searching, and found that he is gone.....
Serioulsy, I moved every hiding spot, he is not there. The tank has guppies and platys and danios. Much to small to eat him, i guess if they really wanted to.
WTF is going on, and has anyone else had this happen???
