So i have a albino channel cat and a redtail tiger cat. So what i am wondering is that i have changed my tank and took the stone out the bottom. I put white pool fitler sand in the bottom now. The thing is that my catfish look bloated all the time now. So i was wondering if they could be eatting the sand? I have watched them but have never seen them eat the sand. I have not changed the way i feed them. So could it be that or could there be something else wrong with the fish?
 
Yeah I can post some pics just need to get them first. Yeah i really cant wait for them to get hugh. But really cant wait to get my addation done so i can get the 10x5x2 tank in to put them in.
 
I do not think him eating sand is the issue. Also you never said that he seem sick so I probably would not worry.
 
Stop feeding them for a couple of days and see if it goes down. if it's the same size, definitely something wrong.
