I have a Synodontis nyassae and lately, he has come out of hiding. I have had him for months, but the last 2 months, he doesn't hide anymore. It's nice, and he swims upside down! Is that whatthey do? I know I should have researched it before buying it, but I am also a cat lover and his cheetah fur look was more than I could stand, and I had to have him. I just wonder why he changed from an introvert to an extrovert.
Also, I can't seem to keep my pleco's alive anymore. I have had 3 die on me within two years. The last one I never did find too. I have 3 catfish, and I am suspecting one of them or all of them may be bigger because they ate him. What's that about. The synodontis had a big bulge on his left side (like where his cheeck would be if he had them). I was real concerned and it was there for months. But it seems to be almost gone away. Could it have been a war wound? Could these night creatures be duking it out while I sleep? Did he come out of a fight being the alpha-male and that is why he is more visible?
Someone please help me understand this magnificent fish.
Thank you for your time
