So, I put a piece of zucchini into my tank to feed my clown pleco, and a little while later he was happily eating it. When I looked at him though, I noticed that he was a yellow color instead of dark brown. His patterns were still visible, but a lot less prominent.
I tried to inspect him for any signs of sickness, but he is really shy and he swam into a hiding spot as soon as he saw me.
I searched on the internet for anything about a pleco turning yellow, but I couldn't find anything. Is he okay? He was eating happily, and I didn't see any signs of sickness in the short seconds I could get a good look at him.
This was the first time I noticed him looking like this, but he usually hides in a dark place so I rarely ever really see him.
My water parameters are all fine, and I didn't add anything new to the tank.
Any ideas would be greatly appreceated.
Thanks!
