Got A Common Pleco
Had Him About a week now,
his behavior is completely normal, hides all day, chilling in the darker areas of the tank, if he moves from place to place, its normally very quickly,
but if he dosent know im there he'll swim round the tank normally and completely fine,
Recently i was having a quick inspection of him, and he seems to be a little bloated, his stomach is protruding about 3mm at the most from the rest of the underside, also he is breathing/sucking really quickly?
help!

Can yoy get a picture of it please? It could just be he's over eaten a bit; it's sunken bellies that you need to watch out for.
