    Tankmates For A Leopard Pleco

    Hello everyone, a few months ago I got a leopard pleco that was about the size of my pinky, he now has grown and is the size of my index :) He is really cool and I would like to set up my 200Gal around his needs. I was thinking of getting a few oscar babies and some plecos to go in with him. Any...

    Is This A Sail Fin Pleco?

    So here I was thinking maybe Gordon wasn't getting enough food because the mollies with him are little terrorists when it comes to food, when today I see this:     Clearly he is eating SOMETHING! I have a feeling he is also pigging out on his new driftwood! Does his belly look too big? His poop...

    Is This A Sail Fin Pleco?

    My husband recently told me my hobby is 'lame' and that I should get a salt water tank with a giant puffer he saw! 'now THAT'S a fish'. He's now satisfied when I told him Gordon will become the size of a small dog

    Is This A Sail Fin Pleco?

    I got this sand because I have cory cats in there which seem to prefer very smooth and fine sand. Now I am regretting it because it's a huge mess.   I think the fin is from him exploring the tank and trying to fit where he isn't suppose to fit! His thing is trying to clean the roots of my large...

    Is This A Sail Fin Pleco?

    Success!!!     He is officially a veggie addict now! Just to make sure I am doing things right - I am putting a new piece of veggie every 24hrs and leaving it in until the 'fresh' one arrives. Is this okay? I left it in the tank all day today and he kept going back to it. My tank has very...

    Is This A Sail Fin Pleco?

    Just wanted to make sure the ID is correct. I got him for my 200Gal and if I understand correctly he will grow very big? How long does it take them to reach full size?   Thank you!

    Peaceful Pleco That Doesn't Grow Too Large?

    Bristlenose is just what I was thinking! I am very excited as I haven't had a pleco for years.   Is it better to get them as juveniles or could I already look into a more fully grown one? At what age can they be sexed? I would really like a fully bearded male.

    Peaceful Pleco That Doesn't Grow Too Large?

    Hi everyone, I am looking for suggestions on a peaceful pleco that would do well in my 55gallon community tank and won't outgrow it (at least not soon!). I am attracted to some of the more patterned varieties and love the albino ones! I don't have very small fish in there, the smallest is...

    would a peaceful variety of gouramis work with the mollies in the hard water?

    Upgrading - Cool Fish To Add?

    Rehoming isn't an option. But I could put the sterbai with my Discus. Have to think that through tho. How many corys should I have in total? 15?   I will add more Kuhlis as soon as I can find some more.   I cannot give the mollies their own tank. One of the reasons for the upgrade is that the...

    Upgrading - Cool Fish To Add?

    Hi everyone, this is my first post here.    I have a 30Gal tropical tank and will be upgrading to a 50Gal corner tank in a few weeks. Super excited! I am looking for some advice about interesting and peaceful fish I could add. I was thinking of adding a few larger fish to mix with my smaller...
