Beautiful fish! I lost my 24" Black Shark Catfish last week, yours looks very healthy. At least my 20" Clown Knife can have some peace, the catfish was pretty aggressive. But I do sometimes think about trying a snake head. Good luck with your sale of a fantastic fish!
I am very sorry to hear that. I lost a HBRTG once (my first aro). It didn't jump but may have been struck by one of my pbass or maybe knocked itself out hitting the lid. I also lost most of my saltwater fish this summer when my sump sprung a leak. And a 24" black shark catfish died last...
When I had more rays I used to do water change 2-3 times a week. That was for a cycled 320 gallon tank with a 50 gallon sump with pot scrubbers, 2 rena xp3's and an UltimaII 1000 pond filter rated for 1000g.
I would recommend a 50% water change every second day, with prime water...
Thanks guys. I don't know if it was old age or he took a hit from the other three pbass. There is also a black shark and clown knife that are larger than he was at about 24". The ck seems pretty mellow but the catfish can get kind of ignorant at times. Hopefully this is an isolated case.
I discovered the largest of my pbass upside down and looking beat-up this morning. He didn't make it, I guess he must have gotten into a fight and lost. I have had him for about 7 years and he must have been about 5 when I bought him as he was already large. I measured him at 19" from nose to...
LOL! You have a great sense of humour! I only had my aro bite me once but it did take me by surprise. Mine didn't break the skin but it did pinch.
That must be quite the community tank with 10 14" aros! I would love to see the tank, with or without the finger food. I dare you to stick...
