    No, I had cold water fish, then turned tank into a tropical-ish tank.

    The only original fish I had in there were the 2 plecs, and a catfish, before turning it.

    I got rid of all my gold fish except one and all the tench i had in there.
    The gold fish is a Fancy Gold Fish, what I would call a Fan tail.

    I have today discovered that it was/is the cat fish that has been eating my guppies and neons.

    It too has not been removed from the tank.

    Once I get some more plants etc for the babies to hide in, I might return the Gauramis and fancy gold fish, leaving the bard and catfish out in thier own tank.

    Thanks for all your help guys and girls.

    Re: Loosing fish after being intoduced to an estabished tank

    maybe hes feeding them too much?
    Nemo, you told me to only give them a quarter of what I was giving them, and I only fed them twice a day before I reduced it to once a day.

    After all they can go over a week without any food cant they?

    I can watch my tank and its contents in their little aquatic world for hours! xxxx
