Hi and welcome to Fishlore :). Glad you joined.

Spirulina or chlorella are my two recommendations, but if not maybe cultured algae.

Maybe it can be annelids. They aren't mites because I doubt they'd harm a fish like that.

If it's been cycled for 3 years I don't think you'll need bacteria.

I just got to ADF's and I don't know how to tell if they are male or female. I am just curious to see

Pretty sure a hygger aquarium light might be fine.

Maybe rasboras would be a good fit. I bet around 10 could fit depending on the species.

I just got two ADF's and a mystery snail after the recent passing of my Betta Fish, Flaming Hot Cheeto (cool name right?) Cheeto is not the fish on my PFP.

The copper in the brass could be a little risky, and toxic for marine animals like starfish and sea urchins. A safer idea may be plastic bulkheads or anything else made of plastic.

It is metriaclima callainos. That's just a different color

This isn't common, but maybe it has a tumor. Maybe if possible you can consult a vet that studies aquatic animals, and can answer what happened to your catfish. If so, ask them if you can give it any special treatment. I'm sorry to say this, but I would recommend quartine until your fish has...
