We just moved into a new house last tuesday, and we inherited from the previous owners a small 10 gallon tank with an over abundance of fish! Listen to this guys:

2 6" Plecos
4 1" Blackskirt/Orange/Painted tetras
2 1-2" Corys
1 5" catfish that I have no clue to what it is.

Two things, should I move some of the fish to my temporary Oscar tank until I get a 75/55, or what? Would the tetras go good with my wimpy Paradise fish (wimpy meaning not aggressive compared to my old suicidal PF)? Second, can anybody give me a guess to what this mystery cat is? It never moves, and it always has its head hidden in this little cave they had. It is a has the coloring of an Albino Redtail shark, but it has the features of a synopotis type cat, and it has coloring in its eyes. It is also built like a cat, thick and triangularish, where as ARTS are sleek and thin. Any pictures and comments on what it might be will be beneficial, along with care for this fish.
 
I think it was good you moved one of the plecos.

When you get your 75 gal for the oscar set up you should probably put the plecos and the other catfish in there too.

I guess your stuck with them unless you can give them to a lfs?
