Well tests were good a quick W/C off to the lfs

And the vid tells the story

Cheers Gaz

Update Kirby the Pleco has settled in well finding all sorts of places to try and hide

Goomer and new friend seem to have hit it off

No aggression they follow each other around side by side

Lesson learn't Oscars and Pleco's are bloody hard to catch

Sorry bout the lighting only got my 4ft t8 till the hood is made using LEDS

Well done Gazza!!! They are beautiful!

Now I have to know, was all the work worth it???

Gaz

good job!
I love the way the pleco seems to know where you are filming.
Looks like he swam right into the cameras eye.

How did you catch the pleco?
I find its always easiest done by hand.
They tend to be stuck in the net.
It takes some practice but i love to catch them by hand. Just because i am amazed everytime i feel a plecos armoured skin.

It feels like a big bug covered in sandpaper.

they look happy in there gazza

And im with noddy on catching plecs by hand, lower the water volume and slowly hold them by the sides, they dont struggle, i guess they play dead
