Lol dang. The botiq loach would probably fit right in my tank perfectly. I have too many bottom dwellers though IMO.

Yeah too bad my Denisons barb ate my danios.... Fix you think I should just turn it into a semi aggressive tank?

Well I took the bullied one back and kept the aggressive one so he is the same but is swimming more freely. Definitely less stress. They'd fight so much around the driftwood that my cories wouldn't go around it but now it is there new home.

Took one pleco back to the store and I can definitely see a behavior change in the other one.

Gotcha LFS it is

I did notice that the pleco that has the stress related discoloration has more white fuzzy stuff so maybe they did get into a fight. I saw them this morning like violently flapping and waving their fins.

Ok gotta put it on Craigslist or ask the LFS will take it back

Would it be wise to replace him with a different pleco species or should leave the one with free roam?

The only home is back at the store.

Dang. Should I bring one back to the pet store? I didn't know that they were aggressive to each other. Would a male and female be aggressive?

Yes they are

I'm not sure if you can see the discoloration on this pleco but I can see it on my phone.

This has nothing to do with this post but I saw your signature and was wondering how you kept the MTS under control? I don't wanna throw a yoyo or clown loach in the tank cause I fear they will eat all the snails. Do you just throw in some food and then throw it away later?

100 gallon

Dang well I guess I'm gonna turn the tank semi aggressive and take the danios back. All I have is 6 peppered cories 2 hifin pleco 6 Denisons barbs

No there are only rocks and drift wood. And I have a pre filter and just cleaned the filter. So they aren't there. I just didn't think that the danios were that small compared to the denison's mouth.

I do have both a canopy and some plexiglass covering the two openings on the top

Well I had maybe 12 and I'm down to 4 zebra danios. There are no bodies in the tank or filter and the ammonia is normal. Could me denison's barbs be slowly eating them.

Both of my plecos have the fuzzy white stuff on their noses

Did you dab the peroxide on him and just put him back in the tank?

So I want malaysian trumpet snails in my tank but i don't want an explosion like what is happening now... Is there a loach that eats the snails but is only small enough to eat the babies? Or that just won't eat the larger ones?

Well I only ever see one at a time. And they are moving around and sucking on the driftwood and glass when I get home at 11pm and the lights are off.

Here is another picture I managed to grab of him... You may need to zoom in, and look at the bottom of his mouth.

No I only see it on the plecos...

I haven't seen the other pleco to tell if he has it as well. But this one definitely has a white puffy/fuzzy growth on the outside of its mouth. Ok just debating on whether to med him or not, I don't have another tank for quarantine or hospital though.
