sell them via craigslist/give them away

So i have a featherfin catfish, which everyone Ive talked to and everything Ive read says they're really aggressive

but mine isnt, he just sits at the bottom and the fish i have now are just attacking him all the time, he doesnt even move when I add food in

i have only a 40L tank i could move him to which is way too small, but i cant keep him where he is now and i have no room for another tank

I've had this fish for about 6 years so I wanna keep him but i dont know what to do

>>2160934
Synodontis usually can be rehoused without any problems,depending on your area. I'm sure you'll find someone with an african cichlid/big enough tank near you, that can take care for him, if you look online.

About the only thing that keeps me from killing them on sight is the thought of having to clean up the resulting mess.

Build a potato cannon with a very short barrel, calculate the volume of the combustion chamber and fill it with lighter gas using a syringe. This will generate an intense burst of clean flame that won't leave soot marks, it's capable of vaporising mosquitoes and killing just about any other insect instantly. The smell is pretty bad but it dissipates quickly.

you're a stupid baby

The gunpowder also burns their noses. Don't forget that.

My mom has a dvd with fireworks playing on repeat for like a week before big events, by the time the real fireworks goes off the dogs are accustomed completely

Looks like some kind of growth.

Vet for sure.

>Information on brands that meets dog's nutritional needs?
There are none

It's a carnivore
It needs meat, it's evolved specifically to eat meat
It would not only be unhealthy but depressed if you didn't feed it meat

>>2160605
I suppose there are no one size fits all for a dog's nutritional needs

Dude it probably has rabies or something else wrong with it.

He's turning out pretty friendly. After some cat food and attention. He's kind of a baby...

Looks like a cousin to the North American House Hippo...

There was a widely held myth, i think probably perpetuated by the pet industry, that reptiles would grow to the size of their tanks and then stop growing. The many keks when your baby iguana doesn't stay one foot long.

It was basically impossible for a kid to drum up the amount of business required to get their free monkey.

>>2160539
Yeah you can take the pups off and root them, but they'll obviously take a loooooong time to grow to the size of the 'parent' plant.

Protect Him.

Both my 2 cats and 2 dogs are rescues. I only know one of their stories for certain.

Cat 1 was an owner surrender I think. She is a handful and has kitten tier energy at 7 (adopted her when she was 4). Cat 2 was abused/neglected and either sized or surrendered. He is ancient (at least 10) and currently has kidney disease, as tends to happen to old, especially boy, cats like him.

Dog 1 is the only one I know for sure his story. He escaped his old owners house once and the lady that would be the foster I got him from returned him. He escaped again and that lady found him again, said "fuck these people" and kept him and decided to find him a new home. He looks identical to what you see if you Google "dachsador" so I have a theory he may have been the results of some BYB operation.

Dog 2... no clue. All I know is she ended up in a city pound in a city on the Texas-Mexico boarder where she got heartworms. She was going to be euthanized but the Humane Society of Dallas County rescued her and a handful of other dogs that were going to be euthanized for heartworms too. I have no clue about her life. All I know is she wasn't spayed at 2 years old, so maybe she escaped a house as a puppy?

Found my dog and another one walking down the middle of my road one day. He was nervous but followed her anywhere, both were skinny and drinking water from the mud.
We found their owner but by then we knew he was trailer trash and had beaten him badly and very overbred her. My dog in particular was terrified of even entering our house, if he was on a leash and you pulled he'd throw himself to the ground trying to escape and one time I ran to my sister after she screamed in another room and he saw me and pissed himself right out of fear. Got a giant scar on his side and it looks like it's from a shovel.
Anyway, the other dog got spayed and a nice new home, mine is significantly calmer and happier, he loves getting butt scratches and getting to run around our acre. I love him a lot.

How the fuck did my image get upside down?

I suppose the best thing you can do for now is post flyers around the neighborhood. Put food out for him every night and watch it so you can catch him. I hope you find your kitty! I'm sure he's fine.

>>2160192
Don't put food out, you will attract other animals.

Put out things that smell like you, like your sheets after you have slept in them a bunch or the shirt you were wearing that day.

What area she at? If it's Cali I can send a few of my friends out there to look in your neighborhood as long as I pay them. I can cover expenses because I know how hard it is to lose a furry friend. If she/he is gone I know it might be hard, harder then most people but remember 13 years is alot, your buddy was probably getting really old and tired. Just know he/she is free now and as a Christian I personally believe she would be in Heaven, awaiting your arrival. And you'd be able to get a new baby kitty!
Try and stay positive and hope for the best, if the best doesn't come try to stay positive alright? Trust me usually I'm a dick on here but I understand the pain of losing a pet very, very well

so what kill him or let him live

>>2159749
I dunno, put him outside or something. It's not like he's gonna kill all the ants. Also, follow the ants back to their nest so that you can corrode the earth around it with bleach and nuclear waste
