I got some glass catfish a week ago and one of them keeps i guess throwing up. I know fish spit food but not like a few hours after been fed. I was told its nothing to worry about but well if it is what can i do about?
 
Does he look thin, or have s sunken in belly?
Does he look bloated?.
Check his mouth to see it's not sore on outside or inside.
Is he going to the toilet if so what does it look like?
Does he act listless and lethargic.
Check his anus to see if it looks enlarged, or red and inflamed.
 
What food are you feeding the fish as sometimes certain foods don't agree with them and makes them sick.
Are you over feeding?
 
The fish is eating fish flakes but started giving peas. I hVe not caught the fish pooping. But its swimming around with the other catfish. No inflamation and mouth is fine. I asked the previous owner and he said that catfish always did that x_x
 
I've never kept glass cats before but I think they prefer frozen meaty foods.
 
I tried but they didnt like it.. They only eat the flakes and kinda tricked them into the peas
 
Is the fish still being sick?
 
Yeah it throws up.... But it doesnt seem sick x_x
 
Change the brand of flakes to see if that makes a difference.
Also frozen foods like daphnia, brine shrimp, bloodworms.
 
Still no change but maybe with the days if chanching the food
 
Has he lost any weight?
Might be a good to isolate him so you can make sure he's not over eating.
Then you can see what making him throw up.
 
No he isnt but he is isolated. Well at least the fish has not died
