It took me ages to get my common plec to eat veg as she wasn't used to it from previous owner. A large plec needs more than tank algae to live on. Try JMC Catfish pellets -never known a fish to resist them, even my fussy common. All fish love JMC, even my livebearers and goldfish!

Try ordering on Ebay, that's where I got mine from. Even with postage it's really good value fishfood.
