A Big-Small Problem

its out of stock, but wouldnt it bully the other fish anyway? i have: 6 ghost shrimp, 2 mollies, and 3 guppies.

Yeah, flagfish can be a bit aggressive to other tank mates. Really, there aren't a lot of species that will eat the type of algae you have.

ok, well i have a 4 inch common pleco in my other tank, and if i put it in overnight or something, might it eat the algae? i just wanna know before i do it because i dont wanna risk the stress

They seem to be out of stock alot. Expensive shipping anyway.

I did read that the common plec may eat it but I do not have the experience to back it up.

i was in miami last week, and the weather there was colder than bangor, maine in the morning! tennesee must be pretty cold now though.

It is still above freezing. When it does get below it usually doesn't last long, at best a few days. The worst for us is freezing at night and back above in the day. But generally the winters aren't bad. No Sleet as of yet though.
