A Pic Of My Suckerfish His Name Is Slippery

[slipperysucker]

My little slippery sucker is too fast to catch if need be and way to fast to photograph, its taken me numerous tries over a couple of months to get this pic. He scatters off into holes or behind plants...The depth of my tank is wide so lots of plants etc...Finally last night I caught him by surprise....yay!

just a word of warning, they grow big and get aggressive. they will attack fish and stop eating algea when older. they are a bad choice for small tanks and should be returned to the fish shop. try some ottos for algea eaters. (research them first)

Hi..Yep I just found this out yesterday about them being aggressive. So have decided when he is a little bigger, will pass on to our lfs or a family member, as most of my relo's have tanks..bigger than mine. I also have 3 corries so probably just keep them...I also have plenty a snail...so algea wont be a problem in my tank if slippery is gone...I like him too, when he was small he used to swim with my gups. He liked one in particular though...and never attacked her at all..but used to shove the others away. Saddly my Zoe is gone now...But her fry live on!!!!! We've had slippery now for about 5 months and he has grown heaps...our lfs keeper said he would over time...but we didnt know he would become aggressive. We know now...so will keep an eye out on him...like my 3 year old daughter says...IM WATCHING YOU!!!!!

My Corries - Sorry pic is so dark its taken off a phone.

LMAO! No worries no offence taken here. I like Slippery he's cool. It wont be while until i re-house him as Ive only had him 5 months and he's outlived all. I guess evil wins again...ha ha ha ah ha ah ahaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaa!!! Jk! No really I like him until he eats all new fry anyway...then he's OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry trying to breed gups here.
