Big Shark

[Sorrell]

I took these pictures for another thread, but I had to spotlight this pleco...he is so big!
Here he is Big Shark, my monster pleco...Look at the Salvini in the corner, see how big that pleco is?! It's unreal.


Please excuse the floating plant these pictures were on a whim and I didn't clean up the recent diggings first!

One more...out of the dark...

how much did u pay for that beast

 

[Sorrell]

Actually, my mother in law bought him at Wal-Mart seven or eight years ago as a two incher. I had a small one in my 150 and she had this monster in her 55, so I traded her. He does an awesome job too, I've heard some people say that plecs get lazy when they get bigger, but he is a hard worker.

Ah Sorrell he is SOOO adorable.
I use to be afraid of plecos........they look too much like catfish

But there's just something about them that peaks my interest, can't explain it, but I'm sure you understand!

I do think though that I would be afraid of your pleco

How big would you say his mouth is around when he's on the glass?
