My Plecosamus

I love this fishy so much!!! Look at all these great pics!!! Please do comment, and ask any questions you'd like, as I am very sure in my ways of raising plecos ^^

When he was younger:




His cuteness hanging on a leaf:


Hanging out with his little cory friend:



His "mohawk":


He is healthy and happy! And he's such a fatty! He eats a whole one of those disc algae things every evening! That's so cute!!! I love him, his name is Oscar ^^~<3

Randy!!! Your pleco is ginormous!!!!! That's amazing! Mine is about 5 1/2 inches long, and the pet store told me he was just a common one. He's still growing, but because his home is a ten gallon he's not going to make it to full size, unless I get a bigger tank. Either way he's happy and healthy! I love his reddish color, it's so pretty! I'll have to get a pic of him upside-down sucking algae off the decor in my tank! He's so cute! I like his markings, even though he went from dark blue to reddish, he's kept those lighter markings on him ^^ he likes the large amount of algae that grow on my one plastic plant and the ruins decorations! You know what? He nearly died when I got him! He wouldn't move, it started the second week I got him! There was a spike in the levels and the water got so nasty and I couldn't get it out! Then I discovered that if I use the water from the filtered thing from the sink (it cleans out chlorine, fluorine, and puts minerals in, to be healthy drinking water) and then stress coat, the water is so much healthier. And now the tanks inhabitants live in good for you drinking water ^^
