Hey John,
Thanks for the welcome.
I've had it for about 4 months. Yes its in the same tank since my brother
had him in when he got it 5-6 years ago, but he did have other fish.
My brother basically had different tetras in there. They've all passed now
except for the pleco. After my brother passed his wife didn't want the tank
so I took it.
I think the pleco is about 5 inches long. Right before I got it the last
black tetra died.
I have had little 10 gal tanks before in the past. Little neon's/guppies and
a betta tank once. I seen a sick betta about half dead sitting on a walmart
shelf and the softy I am bought a 10 gal tank to put it in and he lived for
4 years.
I do have a Japanese Koi pond in the backyard. I've had it with the same Koi
I started with for 14 yrs.
I don't know a thing about pleco's. I asked the pet store owner and he told
me they were community fish but I also know the guy is running a business as
well. lol
I've read conflicting infor on the web.
I feed it the algae wafers and give it a zucchini once a week. Its seems
happy enough. Is there anything else it likes to munch on?
Tatts
