I have one too, he usually is wedged between the fronds of a small sword Plant I have so he's tricked into letting me see him most the time
Thats the same trick I learned with these fish. You have to intenionally design your tanks in ways where you can see them...even when they think that you can't.
I love these guys very very much. To anyone that's genuinely Interested in this fish and really wanna see them one thing I'd recommend is understocking the tank with fish that aren't too big and aggresive but not small enough to be eaten by these guys and possibly a feeder colony as well of like some endlers. This gets them to come out and hunt and in an understocked tank they'd be less freaked out by the other fish. Also turning the lights dim for an hour before turning them off and using a baster or something to get some live or frozen foods at the bottom of the tank will also get them to come out eventually.
Another way is to use tannins and fill the tank completely with wood, they'll poke out a lot.
How big a tank should you keep one in and can you keep more than one or do they brawl?
I just picked one up today at my local fish store. It was the first time I seen one there and thought it was a cool looking little Catfish.
Hope the angel fish has a good rest of it's life
That is a real beauty!. I wonder if the bumblebee cat generates an electric current to assist in the dark or possibly hunt at night. It looks a little like an electric catfish from Africa.
Stringy clear poop between segments floating around. Angelfish could have gotten internal parasite damage that could be affecting his swim bladder.
That's a neat looking fish
👌❤
Considering getting one or two in my 65 but I would need to scape the tank around them
I have 2 and they have eaten every tank mate they had..Even an algae eater that was longer then them. The only tank mate they have is a pleco who is way bigger then them..
Good looking fish
Thank you.
Good video. 🐠👍📺😎
I got 1 asian bumble bee think he only maxs out at like 2.5 inch would prefer the south American one tbh
I have one in a fairy scape kinda 10 gallon where he just hangs in a cave ( hobbit hill) anyways like you seen mine only a handful of times lol im glad too see him when i do , have him with 3 garra and a platy
At least in a 10g the fish is relatively hard to lose track of. I have kept a few of the nocturnal catfish including a current spotted raphael catfish that I see maybe once a month or once every 2 months in a 90g. Plus if I wanted to find it basically impossible to do without lifting all the wood. Plus sometimes it hides in cracks so.
@@zafishguy5166 Id probably never see if he was in big tank lol he comes out of cave late night , I wish hed eat snails! Every now and then he’ll chase a garra off if they try and go in his big cave , if I need to ever get him out id have to take out cave and pour him out, i like raphael cats
@@kathykirkham1347 I don't know how a garra would do with it long term in such a small tank. Plus honestly my opinion a 10g is not really good for much other than small livebearers and fish fry. Perhaps it's fine for catfish that hide with frequent water changes.
@@zafishguy5166 it was supposed to be a plant tank but wanted something for cave after scaping it , and ordered garras online they came so small so thats where they ended up and wanted to put them in other tank but hard to catch and so far its a cool fun lil tank only 5 fish in it , just getting mature now
He's so cute
Red tail catfish are awesome too
They just get too big tho. If there was one that got 6 inches Instead of 6 feet I would get on. They do look cool
@@zackkeptner1954 same, we gotta know our limits with the amount of animals we keep and what size they get to
redtail cats are not meant to be in the aquarium hobby. unfortunately, some assho le decided to introduce them into it. the fucking thing is a food item in its native land. keeping one as a pet is ridiculous.
This was my last account btw, forgot it wasn't A&C Nation😭
What's the green.worm.like roots ?
Looks like anubias roots
It looklike the Asiatic bumblebee cat fish. Akysis a lot
did u put any new plants in the tank with the angelfish recently and maybe he could be having a allergic reaction to a plant. just tryin to think of things for u cuz that is a beautiful fish
No, nothing's changed that I can think of.
@@DanHiteshew-oneandonly I just looked it up and it says that Angel fish can live up to 10 years. 8 years I believe u said how old it is wow good job at least u know it lived a good long life and who knows it may live a long time yet
Nice 👍🏼
