So I went to the LFS and wanted to get a pleco. So I see they have all commons but one in a floater. She says its a zebra pleco and is by itself because somone traded him in. She also said he really stressed and thats why theyre trying to keep him isolated. So I bought him for $3 and put him in. It seems like hes paralized. Hes breathing but can move. I can pick him up and turn him over on his back and he wont correct himself. Whats going on? Is this stress or somthing else?

Oh jeez... there was no reply on this?! What ever happened? Did you ever get a picture? Was his belly sunken in?

Yeah I was thinking the same thing.. or that LFS didn't know what they had.... But I doubt it. Wish there were pictures and hope he made it
might be some kinda Hypancistrus sp. so would be good to have a good amount of dissolved oxygen in the water with some decent flow. What shape is the fish in?
