just became an american *play dramatic music*
I've always wanted a pleco but wasn't sure I had enough room for one, well now i do :D . So I went out and bought this little 3inch yellow and grey guy and my b/f named him Captain Jack Sparrow, lol. So far the 5 cories love checking him out.
For those of you who saw Pirates of the Carribean, you know how strange Jack acts in the movie, well i think my pleco adopted some of the traits. He often swims/ moves backwards, poos like he's pooing for every fish in the tank and stays on the bottom with his cory gang(i practically bought him for cleaning the algae covered walls :crazy: ). Ah well, Jack is still a cutie and often winks at me. I will be posting pictures soon....
 
that is soo cool! congrats! i want a pleco too! but not sure if im gonna get one i'll see, what kind of pleco is the one u have? and also what is the volume of ur tank?
 
I'm guessing a common pleco, but i really have no idea. He had such beautiful yellow to him and such a nice dorsal fin that we had to grab him . He's only 3inches now and he's in a 25 gallon and will be moved to a 35 gallon soon. An even bigger tank is in the works as well. Just have to buy batteries for the digital and pictures will up tomorrow. Don't worry you'll all get to see Captain Jack Sparrow, lol. :p He's become best buds with the cories.
