The big one sucking the stone?? Its a common Plec, they are very easy to look after but get very big simple feed them algea wafers, cucumber, lettuce, and give them plenty of hideing places, so if you plan on getting one consider the size it will get as they can be hard to rehome due to there size, if you like Plecs and havent got a big tank try looking at something smaller like Bristlenose Plecs.

Female Bristlenose



Male Bristlenose

Re: My tank :)

Around 18-24 inches, there abouts at least, unless you can accomdate these please dont get one as it will be cruel to own one in a small tank, especial when it grows and they do grow fast, they at least want a tank of 6ft or bigger, preff the latter

Re: My tank :)

Re: My tank :)

HI,

I was looking at the fighter too, i love them and was hoping to get one to put in my community tank but have decided against it as i want guppies and apparently the two dont usually mix too well.

I noticed he did look a bit tattered tho and when looking at the fish that was in i imagine they have had a nibble at his fins...but hes a big boy i bet he gave as good as he got lol.

OH forgot to say great tank, my tanks pretty bare not been set up long so will be looking for some more ornaments and things soon.
