pleco advise

Hello! I am so excited to be a part of your community. :) I'm brand spanking new to the fish world. Although I did some salmon fishing in Alaska and I was gifted my 6th grade class tadpole and a little betta once many years ago. Who knew you could feed a tadpole to death!? I do! . . . ...

Can anyone help me identify what kind of pleco this is? I'm having a hard time finding out. New to the hobby.

So I posted here a few weeks back regarding a Royal Pleco I had which unfortunately passed on but as I found out was probably for the best as the tank size would have become an issue down the line. I rushed into getting fish without knowing a lot of basic stuff and a few fish suffered for it. I...

I have a tall 55-gallon tank that's been spotless since I got it, with the help of a Chinese algae eater (named Nuts). There's not enough algae that grows to feed him properly, but my tank is full of cone snails that live in the sand and he snacks on those too, which is fine by me. I never...

I am closely monitoring my pleco and I am trying to diagnose and treat what looks like bloody bloster on the belly of my pleco. It had these once before and they clear up with 20% water changes daily, stress zyme, increased water temp, and a good bacteria ball. I would like to know what these...

Opinions please? I have always been under the impression you can’t keep multiple plecos together but when I watch videos or ask others they have multiple plecos. Some more info would be good as I would love to have another pleco in my tank. Thanks in advance.

I have had shrek my green phantom pleco a good while now maybe 3-4 months and honestly not what I was expecting after owning a huge sail fin It was bought at around 2inches and after 3 months it’s grew max to 3incha possibly a little less , how long do things take to grow to the apparent 8...
