he came with a friend I guess. I noticed there were very tiny snails in the tank with him at the lfs. I watched carefully, as I didn't want snails...and when I put him in, I checked the water from the bag, and there was no snail in there.
I can only surmise a snail was attached to the catfish, and when i scooped him out of the bag, the snail came too.
I don't really have much info on snails, as I wasn't looking to add a snail to my tank. So now I am not really sure what to do? I have a couple live plants. Will he eat them up?
Also - does anyone have this type of catfish, and are they typically Psycho? He hides in my pirate ship most of the day - then a few times aday he makes multiple rapid spins around the tank all along the side the top then bottom, then repeat. Just wondering if this it normal fish behavior. He reminds me of a puppy when they are just so wound up they don't know what to do with them self.
