Well, now that I have 2 tanks... damn that MTS :angry: ... I just had to get a little pleco for the 2nd tank to help with the algae. Plus it was a damn good excuse period !!

Meet Tiny... he is a whopping 2" (barely) in length and enjoying the HELL out of his 30 gallon tank !!







I will get better pictures when he cooperates !!

Awesome! Nice Pleco! What kind is he? A common pleco? Good luck with him!

I'm not sure exactly. I never trust the LFS to give me correct advice. I'm waiting for the Pleco GOD... Noddy... to tell me what I have. He is cute as hell and as you can see, already pooping !

Damn, poop conversatin again! Penn, do we need a poop category!?!?! LOL

VERY NICE!

Btw, can you get a closer shot of your new plec?

I'm working on that Johnny.... He has been hiding at the back of the tank. Stayed tuned tomorrow for more pics - without the poop!

Very cute Brooksie. Pleco's are great. (On my wish list but might not be an option right now)

By the way, that last pic is GREAT for introducing prospective pleco owners to what to expect out of their 'tank cleaner.'

they do do an awesome job of eating.....and shitting.....and thats about it, lol

But they look so good.
I'm not sure if it's a common.
What did they tell you it was at the lfs?
They shouldt have an L numbers for you.
Or else we need a macropicture and please count the finspines when his backfin is showing.

Nice job, B.
I got pleco's in all size and they all have a different charm to themselves.
Congratz!

Johnny and Noddy... so sorry to disappoint but today Tiny was the most uncooperative fish ever!!! :angry: Johnny, I was unable to get any pics but I will keep trying. Noddy, LFS thought it was a common but the girl was barely in high school and her exact words were "Ahh, I dunno, a common pleco?". I can't seem to count anything on him but to be honest he looks a little like a Bristlenose Pleco.

I'll keep trying... he's just so damn small ! And the stupid bow front tank makes pics very difficult! :angry:

I'd put my money on Ancistrus species too.
And i can be patient if it comes to pleco pics.
Took me over 2 years to get a picture of my Xingu pleco.
And the smaller they are, the harder they are to get on photograph.

The shaoe of it's nose, makes me think of bristlenose too.
Again, i wish we were neighbours, we couldt discuss this over a cup of coffee.
