Hi.
I have a 6' - 7' sailfin pleco. I am starting to think that I am feeding him too much. I am thinking this as the vast majority of the time there is long a trail of poo hanging from him. This never used to be the case, although he has not always been this big. Is this a sign of overfeeding, or just a fact of life with a pleco?
Another explanation could be the diet I am feeding him. Currently I am feeding him algae wafers, 3 or 4 wafers two times a day. I am aware that plecos like other things in their diet... but I am a bit lax on this front. When I have given him/her cucumber he pays little attention to it. Maybe some perseverance would pay off. Your thoughts?
