There is such a thing as a bumble bee catfish though. I own one, cutest little thing ever. :P You can look it up in the fish index on this site.

How big is that tank?

As of losing color, if you did a large water change maybe you just stressed that fish out. My blue ram usually turns really pale and gets stress lines when I do a large water change. I turn out the lights for her a little while and she calms down and turns back to normal. :dunno:

:-( One of my male german blue rams died today. :-( :-( :-( Your male looks a lot like mine did. :sad: I am happy that your female has eggs though. I hope you will have some cute little ram fry soon! Good luck! :D

Congrats. Pictures are great. :D :thumbs:

Is your fish eating and pooping normally? What are the water conditions? Are they holes or do they look like they are filled with puss? Have you added any rocks that you've maybe collected from your back yard or any rocks that aren't specifically meant to be used in an aquarium?

I think I have made up my mind on the oscar, the blood parrot, 4 silver dollars, and the 3 pictus cats. :nod: But who knows, I may go to the LFS and fall in love with an unexpected fish. :dunno: I do that sometimes. Then I'll come home and research it, then go back out and buy him. :P

My blue ram died today. He was breathing rapidly yesterday, but I figured he was just stressed out because I did a large water change. :-( My nitrite was .5 so maybe that was what killed him? All of my other fish seemed fine though. Poor thing. He really had a lot of character. I miss him...

Adorable parrots. I am thinking about getting one along with an oscar for my 100 gallon. Do you think they would do okay?

:lol: How much is an arrowana anyway? They sell a few baby ones at a LPS by my house but they don't have a price. I believe they are silver in color and only about 3 inches in length. So cute when they're little. :P

O_O I would freak out if ANY 9 inch fish jumped out at me. :hyper:

As some of you may know, I had a bad nitrite spike about 2 weeks ago. :-( I did 80% water changes every other day with 50% water changes in between the 80% water changes. I had to do the water changes by hand because I don't have a syphon. :o Anyways lastnight I noticed my glass catfish...

How big is your arrowana? :hyper:

A nice large shoal of neons would look great in my opinion. You shouldn't buy TOO many mollies, guppies, and platies as you will soon see them multiplying faster than you can make extra room for them. :nod: Do you plan on keeping all of the fry or selling them?

I am looking at getting an oscar and blood parrot soon for my 100 gallon, so I assume I will have to throw an occasional feeder fish in the tank. :-( I am afraid I'll end up filling my 29 gallon and spare 10 gallon with "cute" feeder fish. :lol:
