Hi all,
a month ago i bought 4 adult bristlenose plecs, 1 trio and one community male. The trio are fantastic, the picture of health, feeding well and looking very much at home in there own breeding tub - i noticed the first fry last sunday - i sucked the poor thing up . However the community plec isn't doing so well, no signs of disease yet but it isn't feeding, i'v tried spinach, courgette, cucumber, sinking tablets, algae wafers, frozen and flake food but it won't touch any - not even the greens! I also made some bamboo caves and built a rock cave but it usually stays in full view at the front of the tank - just motionless, even at night. What could be wrong with the big fella?
Temp - 80F
PH - 7.2
NH - 0
NO2 - 0
NO3 - 25 (varies of course)
Very soft water
Tank mates in sig.
Many Thanks,
Jonny
