If they are all in the same tank will the larger eat the smaller? They are from the same lake but do not seem like the same type catfish. The larger one only eats from the bottom and hides all day, the small ones eat from the top of the water and the bottom and when they see you come near the tank they come right over to the side where you are. Any information about them would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like you may be in trouble buddy, some catfish can get well over 4 feet long! unless you have these in at least 150 gallons by themselves at adult size your going to have trouble. But to answer your question no, they should not get eaten by the larger one. I wouldn't recommend catching any more fish from the lake and putting them into your tank though.

finding at an excellent meal is overwhelming for a newborn. attempt giving her 6 small food an afternoon. young ones do not eat lots at one time. supply healthful snacks between food like peanut butter crackers (no greater advantageous than 2), a million/3 decrease into slices dipped in peanut butter, cheese and crackers, celery with cream cheese, etc. supply her a a million/2 cup of milk along with her snacks. make advantageous snacks are something healthful that she likes. It sounds like this has grew to become right into a skill warfare. supply up putting lots emphesis on ingesting a definite quantity or in a definite quantity of time. start up making supper time friendly. She'll eat what she needs.Your day with a newborn this age is something like: Breakfast, Wait 2 hours and supply her a snack, then 2 hours later lunch, 2 hours later a snack, 3 hours later dinner, 2 hours later bedtime snack.

Problay, acording to the food pyarmid, a bigger fish can ALWAYS eat a smaller fish. Try buying differnt tanks or make a wall thing in the tank.

DON'T KNOW HOW BIG YOUR TANK IS BUT BE CAREFUL YOU ARE FIXING TO OVERLOAD IT. IF THE BIG ONE IS A YELLOW CAT IT IS A GOOD POSSIBILITY THAT HE MIGHT THE LITTLE ONES SOUND SORT OF LIKE CHANNEL OF BLUE CATS. THEY SHOULD STAY IN HARMONY, UNLESS THE BIG GUY GETS REALLY HUNGRY. IT ALSO SEEMS LIKE THE LITTLE ONES ARE MORE RESPONSIVE TO YOUR APPEARANCE B/C THEY HAVE NOT BEEN TRAUMATIZED BY HUMAN APPEARANCE, LIKE MAYBE THE BIG ONE HAS BEEN CAUGHT BEFORE AND RELEASED.

There's a really good chance he will. I would keep them separate until they get to be the same size
