Bad news....

[tuffers]

I have to trade my pleco in at my LFS!!! I have had my pleco since the start of my tank... but now it is just too big and beginning to loo more unhappy. Although he isnt too bad at the moment but i want to trade him in before he gets too bad. My LFS say that i can trade him in for another, smaller pleco. I will be sad to see him goo, but what needs to be done needs to be done.

Maybe when you trade him in you could get a smaller plec like a bristlenose who you will be able to keep Sorry about you other guy, but you're doing the right thing for him and I'm sure he'll be very happy in his new home with a large tank.

Hi tuffers

It's sad to have to give away a fish that you have become attached to, but you are really doing the right thing for him. This shows how much you care for him better than keeping him would and you should be admired for it.




BTW, have you ever bred your corys again?

hello, i took my pleco back today and i have a new smaller pleco, he is gorgeous, he's not my old pleco, but the people in the shop said he was really well looked after and really healthy. I now look forward to raising this little fella and will enjoy watching him grow. Hopefully, by the time he gets too big i will have bought a larger aquarium and he will be able to move to that!

Thanks for reading.

oh, and the corys, have laid a few eggs, but i have been keeping my baby guppy that one of the females had in the breeder tank. The female looks pretty large at the moment and hopefully, this time i will be more prepared and ready for the eggs!

Why didn't you get a smaller breed of plec? Those get massive and need a really big tank to keep them, happy.

You'll end up just having to do it again.
