r/pleco

I love this close up shot. Look at those scales!!

Meet “Twiggy” the Farlowella! My newest addition to the community.

Does the funniest things sometimes.

Fatass in the background, she was so happy to have a new friend. They have become best buds.

I enjoy watching them sneep on the glass.

My L236SW named Doodle loves wafers. My question is what amount of protein % is too much? I usually give him either Hikari sinking wafers (36% protein) but his favorite is the Hikari sinking carnivore wafers (47% protein). Are the carnivore wafers too much protein for him? He is a Hypan so I know he wants more protein but I also don’t want him ultra fat either.

Best buds!

Twiggy has been a fantastic little addition. It’s something to see Twiggy and Fatass eating foods together.

how does this 20 long look?

per the store manager, it came in with some clown plecos (same size) and has a very similar body plan. Best guess was something in the LDA60s

Hi! I recently accepted a new position at my work and part of the job is taking care of this fish tank with this giant Pleco in it. It is so cute and reminds me of my axolotl Luci a little bit.

Does anyone know what type of Pleco this is? Can you tell from this angle if it’s male or female? I only have experiences with Axolotls and Bettas and it’s much easier to tell their gender lol. I am also wondering if it is too skinny?

Thank you for any help you have to offer me!!
