Greetings all. My husband and I were having a discussion and need your help.
Why do our fishes appear to get smaller after they have been in our
tank for awhile? For example we were given a pleco that was about six inches in size. We placed it in our 60 gallon tank. He now appears to be only about 4 inches long now. We have had him for about 3 months now.
We also purchased a beautiful vermusa. (No sure if that's the correct spelling. He was about 6 inches. After being in our tank we noticed he was getting smaller.
Has anyone else encountered this? I look forward to hearing your reply.
