I was wondering how to breed plecos and how to tell they are male or female
Would this work with common plecos
My local pet stores didn't have any other plecos and shipping is like $30
In all honesty just because that's all they had doesnt mean you shouldnt have got it. it's growth will be seriously stunted and that's not a good thing. When choosing fish this is why doing research before hand or even in the store is vital. The size the fish will reach as an adult needs to be taken into consideration when choosing fish for your tank. If it requires a larger tank than what you currently have once it reaches it's adult size your better off to just not get it. Don't get a fish thinking that you will definitely be able to upgrade when the time comes, sometimes things happen and you can't upgrade and your stuck with a fish that gets to large for your tank and the fish is the one that suffers. Think of it his way and put yourself in the fishies place... Imagine your a person who is 6 feet tall and someone tells you your going to be confined to a space that's the size of a twin bed until the day you die. Just because your going to be in a confined space does that mean your going to stop growing? No it doesn't, you would keep growing just like the fish will.
When it becomes an adult I will sell it
