I bought this fellow from Animates on Moorhouse ave a few
years ago, he is perhaps the most shy of my plecos but is also my
favourite. Undisputed master of the hollow log he will not tolerate any
other plecos in his hidy hole, but is quite unconcerned about them when
out and about forageing for food. He happilly eats pleco tabs and
spirulina discs and allways seems to be in plump condition (maytbe he is a
she). I love the body patterns and the bright orange edge to that large
dirsal fin and tail. He has only grown about 2" in the 4 or so years
in my tank and is now around 7" in size.
