Hi... um, this may be a gross question but my Pl*co's poop covers my whole aquarium bottom. I don't have a clue what to do. I just did a vaccuuming to my tank a few hours ago and already the gravel is covered with long (we're talking over 4 inches here) strands.
My Pl*co himself is about 2 1/2 - 3 inches long. I have him in my 40 gallon until I get my 80 gallon in a few months. He's living with a strange assortment of fish. I have an marble angel, a swordtail and a betta. Some sort of Tetra (probably glolite or harlequin) are coming within the next few weeks.The substance hasn't affected my water chemistry at all yet. It's all fine. I just got him a few days ago and he just dirties up my whole tank.
What do I do about this? Do I vaccum every day to get rid of it all? Ignore it? Feed him less? I give him 3 algea flakes (they are a little smaller than a dime)every night plus he eats whatever algea he can find in my tank. He also sucks on my driftwood a lot too. Are all pl*co's this messy?
