Hello all, I am glad to have found this forum which I have learnt some stuff about how to take care of a tank. Two weeks ago I bought myself a 10 gallon tank along with 2 cichlids, 1 catfish, and 6 small feeder fishes. I was so excited with my new fish tank and I loved to watch the fishes swimming. Then one morning I discovered the feeder fishes were missing and to my dismay I realized they were eaten by the cichlids or the catfish but I suspect it were the cichlids. Right now I am noticing that the cichlids are picking on the catfish and I am worried that they might eat him too. Should I separate the catfish from the cichlids? I'm thinking of getting a 55 gallon tank soon because I learnt that the bigger a tank is the better it is. Another problem I am having is the water in the tank is a bit cloudy but I was told it will clear up in about a month. Is that right?
By the way, I am not quite sure what kind of cichlids and catfish I have but I think they are Malawi and shark catfish from what I have seen in the fish profiles in here and by googling.
Now let me introduce myself to you *BOUNCINGS
I live in the Sunshine State which would be Florida. I am deaf. I have always wanted a fish tank after being a scuba diver for several years. Now I haven't made a dive for so long I missed being around with beautiful fishes I decided to set up my own little aquarium
