Did you just manage to type a paragraph without a single period?
Leave your fish alone. Maybe do a water change and then turn the lights off. Then stop badgering MFK.

he has been like this for days and the tank is overfiltered and the pearsei is small so i don't have to do water changes the water is crystal clear but when he gets bigger it will get very dirty i will leav him alone itlist i now that auc are aggressive
Remove the catfish. Those cats can be very aggressive. They eat meat, if they dont have enough to eat, they will go after other fish and basically chew and nibble on them. They also feed at night while your Pearsi should be sleeping, instead he is being harassed. Get the cat out of the tank. It is a simple solution you could have done on your own without stressing or asking. If your Pearsi was getting harassed and beat up by another fish, you would have removed it. No different than with the cat. Get rid of the cat.
Oh, next time read what you type before you post it. Cause if you cant make heads or tails out of what you said, how the hell are we.
