Hi I have a problem... I have a 20g high with a lil group of convicts and they laid eggs. Their first spawn. But now I have this little SA bumblebee catfish and he's looking very beat up. Not like life and death but like has scratches and bruises all over his muzzle and is somewhat elevated gasping. That and constant chasing.

He is about maybe 2" - 3" somewhere around their. Closer to 2" I guess.

Can I put him in a heavily planted tank with firegreen tetras and julii corydoras?

I ask cuz his mouth is quite big... btw pics are old and do not show damage.

Its the same size tank as he is currently in. 20g high.

It will wipe out everything in that tank! I would keep him in the same tank and give him a better hiding place. Even get something temporary like a short piece of 1" PVC pipe or something to hide in.
