Last night I moved him into a gravel less quarantine tank just to make sure the pleco wasn't the problem. It wasn't because he still sulked at the bottom there to. I checked on him this morning and found what looked like 4 little pieces of undigested deli meat. I didn't taste it so I can't be sure

But I figured the turkey didn't agree well with him and he spent the night being miserable trying to pass it. He is back to his usually cheerful self now so I moved him back into the main tank. All seems well now except for his color change. Hes almost completely black(very dark) but I figured that just has todo with his stressful night and hopefully he'll be a nice red by this afternoon.
I am going to take your advice about the sign though. Thats a very good idea.
I also may have to give my plec to a LFS around here as I won't be able to return it home anytime soon. They really aren't getting along and I'm going to have to separate the two. I feel bad about having to let the guy go though.
