My New 4ft Tank!

[tibby25731]

well here is my new tank:

Here is my common pleco, very happy to have lots of room!

My guppies are too fast to take pics of unless they are asleep! And my kribs are currently stalking each other....

Fraid 4ft is a bit small for a common but looking good so far, keep it up!

nice tank. i like squidwards house think you need spongebobs one to finish the collection.

Thats a nice tank looking gr8.

Thanks everyone! I love Squidwards house but I won't be getting Spongebobs I'm afraid!
I know my common pleco needs bigger, I'm hoping to get a 6ft later in the year when my house gets extended but the 4ft should be fine for him for now! He's still only about 2 1/2 inches long so I've got a while yet!

You sure? because we get loads of these around here, i ended up with one just like this which turned out to be a gibby, i think its hard to tell when so young.

 

[smithrc]

You sure?

yep...

L001 - Gold Spot

L083 - Sail Fin / Gibby

Ya but they rarely all look the same, my gibby looked nothing like the bottom picture, was just like the top untill it matured a little.

 

[tibby25731]

Will try and get another pic of him, see what you think then... I have had him for about 2 months now and he has grown since then but obviously has some way to go! His colouring has altered slightly though... and he does seem to have a yellow stripe at the end of his tail, which I haven't seen on any oher common plecos

 

[tibby25731]

Here are a few more pics of my pleco, dunno if these help a little...

My moneys on L001

 

[tibby25731]

woo! Though I don't know if this is better or worse..... he will still grow pretty big, right? Maybe it will mean I got a bargain I guess, as I paid about £4 for him .
