Fish 4ever24 - ur not rescuing. It the store will think they sell well and by more. So that means more dying in walmart duh!!

[fish4ever24]

damm how big is your pictus catfish i recently rescued one from walmart and put him in my 5 gallon with my 3 guppies

Will a Convict Cichlid and a Betta will do well?? (Planning to get one for my 29 gallon tank with a Dwarf Gourami)I got 2 Bettas (Male,Female) Platy,Plecostomus,Pictus Catfish,Bala Shark,Corycat,and Fiddler Crab (R.I.P Fiddy)

[rs4proof45]

is it a possibility that the 2 tetras my girfriend had pit into the tank that mysteriously disappeared had caused the bloating and the result of its death?? it is the only thing i can come up with. i have had my pictus for a little over a year now and had been doing very well up until about 20 minutes ago. please respond asap, thanks

@rs4proof45 your pictus catfish may have gorged him-self to death making him bloated.

[rs4proof45]

i legit just had one of my pictus die. he was very bloated and i thought he or she was prego ghaha but i dont understand how it died. he or she was fine minutes ago and then it was dead when i looked at the tank. i run a 50 gallon tank with only a few other fish in the tank, 2 other pictus and one electric blue cichlid whom does not bother my catfish at all.he or she was bloated.ne ideas on how or wat caused its death??? very concerned
