    how to move my pleco??

    the pleco is about 8" long so yes he is on the larger side. However, I was not aware that size had a direct relation to hardiness....does anyone else know if this is true? Also...is there any specific way i should pick him up so i don't hurt him?

    how to move my pleco??

    My common pleco has finally gotten a little too big for my 55gal, and i'd like to put him in my 75. The 75 has a lot fewer plants, and it has only a midas-reddevil cichlid crossbreed in it. I know that you aren't supposed to net plecos....but what would be the best way to transfer him over...

    Blue Whale Cat for sale

    He is approx 6" long and looks like a baby great white shark. Really fun to watch him feed. He is a pretty rare find for a freshie, and we love him, but he just doesn't work well in our community tank since his hyperactivity makes our other smaller fish nervous and he likes to eat things...
