Everyone loves pics so feel free to post any/all.

If u have specific questions, dont hesitate to ask.

The beginners resource section would be a great place to do some reading if u'd like to learn the basics and gain some knowledge.

Welcome!
what size is your tank? and do you know what kind of pleco you have? there are a couple of plecos commonly sold that will outgrow the average aquarium, reaching 10+inches.

have fun with your tank! you'll find it's an addicting hobby!
