QuintonT10 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 These popped up all over my tank overnight. It’s a freshwater tank with neon tetras, a white spotted catfish, and 1 Cory dory. I know this is a saltwater website, but I really need help! 2 Quote Link to comment

Tired Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Mold growing on rotting food. What size is your tank? Corydoras are schoolers and should really be kept in groups. And your white-spotted catfish may threaten your neon tetras eventually. 1 Quote Link to comment
Fryguy0201 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I would agree that it is definitely what the other two said already you can see the center is dark like pellet food. Either feed less or a different food if the fish just aren't eating it. Goodluck! Quote Link to comment
QuintonT10 Posted May 30, 2020 Author Share Posted May 30, 2020 Thank you all for the help. I removed all of it. It’s about a 10 gallon tank and the white spotted catfish hasn’t shown any aggression yet but I have a bigger tank I can put him in if he does Quote Link to comment
Tired Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 The problem isn't aggression, the problem is that he might eat them. Raphael catfish aren't the most predatory, but there's still a chance you'll wake up to no neon tetras and one very fat catfish, once he gets big. And I would still very much suggest that you get more corydoras. They really need to be kept in groups. Quote Link to comment
