Looking For A Few Answers About Keeping Fish

[coldcazzie]

Those should be alright for most of the larger fish you have, but the ones that get a couple of feet long wont be suitable. On the other hand, it will be much better for them that staying in the tank you currently have them in...

And yes, you deshell the individual peas - they come apart into two halves.

And don't get too down hearted about it - yes you;ve made mistakes but you are trying to fix them now and you've come to the right place for advice just don't make the mistake again of buying a fish without researching it! (we've all been there!)

Dig out that 6ft tank, clean it, check it for water tightness, if all is good, set it up, that way you have enough space for all of them and may even prevent any further stunting to the larger fish.

If you have only had the Sailfin for about a month it is likely it hasnt been stunted much. I'd get rid of it immediatly to stop any suffering it may recieve during stunting and replace with a smaller pleco, like a Pitbull.

That Sailfin will get amazingly big, you'll need something along the lines of 65"-78" by 24" by 24"

think i would just get rid of it he dose not need any more fish. i would re home some of your fish in that bigger tank for now. hope everything works out and do the water changes

looks like a bloated Synodontis nigriventris... if it only eats the bloodworm you feed everyother day I wouyld stop feeding the bloodworm for a while... maybe try some veggies... my synos LOVE zucchini...
I wont start yelling at you about how overstocked you are and almost none of those fish belong in that size tank anuways...

Hopefully you will listen to some of the advice given to you...

Most of the stuff has already been said so i havent got much to add but

looks like a bloated Synodontis nigriventris

Its defiantly not a nigriventris ive got 3 and they very different. Looks like a Synodontis euptera but i do agree that it could do with some veg and not as much bloodworm.
