Fish FD?

I have a type of catfish in my freshwater tank that whenever he gets stressed (fixing a tree, daughter getting too close to tank) he faints. I mean this fish plays the perfect feign death. It was so damn believable that I almost flushed the damn thing. It's funny too because he lays there bouncing along the bottom like a dead fish turning upside down, rolling along with the current, then looks around after a minute or so and then goes back to his favorite spot in the tank.

I have searched around the net and can't find anything like this. Anyione ever seen such a thing?

Lol poor catfish. I had a fancy gold fish that did something similar. He'd randomly float sideways and stare out the tank off the patio as if he was day dreaming. I knew it was swim bladder problems and tried to correct it, but I still liked to think of him as day dreaming. I called in Sillyheart.

Maybe he can help you with tricky splits somewhere. I recommend sending him to the temple of veeshan. D:

Put an Oscar in the tank. He will take care of the catfish.
