Guy's Im genuinely curious, how are y'alls fish doing?

Just did a 90% water change on my discus planted tank. Itching to put in an order for about 20 adult rummynose tetras. Last school was eaten by my adult discus. Willing to give it another shot

Love a big school of Rummies! I had 14 in my 55 with 2 keyhole cichlids and a couple wood cats. 6 of them disappeared with no trace. The keyholes are small but so are the wood cats (about 3"). I suspect the wood cats only because their mouth is larger.

My tanks are doing well. I'm excited I finally moved my flagtail prochilodus from the 55 to my 135 and it's doing great! He's getting some size on him. Here's a pic of him in the 55.

My 150 with the Clouded Archers is doing wonderfully. All the barbs in there (Cherry, Odessa and 5 banded) are a kick to watch as well as the 3 Empire Gudgeons.
The 55 gallon I need to add to my Rummies. I started with 14 but down to 8. 6 disappeared with no trace. Pretty sure it was not the 2 Keyholes. Can only suspect the 2 wood cats.
On the downside I had 4 Dennison barbs in my QT and lost them all plus my little female betta to some mystery disease. I think the barbs brought something in because I lost them all within a week of bringing them home and my betta was healthy as a horse. She had been the resident in that QT for a couple years.

My semi-aggressive group, the Crime Box, (all catfish except one RTBS) have been behaving themselves.

I merged all my smaller, peaceful fish (all catfish) into one tank and they're adjusting well - in fact the pictus seem much happier in this tank and I feel bad for not noticing they were unhappy in the other one. But it's all good now, and even my synodontis nigriventris seem slightly less shy in a larger group of fish.

that is wonderful! It is always good to see fish so obviously happy. don't worry about your pictus being unhappy previously, because there is a reason they say better late than never.

yeah, I had a similar issue with some baby cichlids I had once with my striped Raphael cat. rule of thumb with catfish, if they are big enough to eat it, they most likely will eat it.
