I think i am going to need a bigger tank

I will leave him for a few weeks to see how he gets on. My local Aquatic store might take
him off my hands if he becomes a problem

Help I bought the silver tip shark catfish yesterday around 3pm introduced it to the tank and it seemed happy swimming about just half ahout ago it was swimming around. now the poor thing looks like its on its last legs. It stoped swimming and seems to floating verticaly on closer examination there seems to be white fungus on its side only a little bit.
This was not there an hour ago

What temp should it be. I am setting up a hospital tank now.How much salt should i use

 

[bobmc99]

Well that was fast died before i could finish setting up the hospital tank. I gave the fish a good examation and it did not have any parasites or fungus it just died within 1 hour of showing signs of distress. Will not be getting one of them again.
