Hi guys,
I’m not new to owning fish but just got two plecs, I have one small one, only just bought it a month ago (no idea what kind) and one there’s a bristlenose that came with the tank. It’s a 300 litre tank, water changed regularly, bristlenose and angel are thriving but I’m finding it strange that the young pleco sits at the top near the surface of the water and then swims down like a fish would, then it’ll sit there for a minute and then go back to the top. I find this strange as the bristlenose acts normal, moves as you’d expect and hides under the driftwood or in the castle.
Is this normal or is there something wrong with the pleco?
