Giant Pleco

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
What kind was it? Thats a big Pleco, I hope it was entirely closed off from other bodies of water. If it was in Wisconsin I can't imagine most Plecos could survive winter.
 
So few plecos can attain such sizes, impressive to see them that big. Hopefully the pond stays very warm, otherwise the pleco will probably die. Especially in Wisconsin, I doubt it would survive the winter. Common plecos out here can't even survive through the fall outdoors.

Nah, Hystrix and titanic get to be well over that size. It would not be suprised if it were an L155 A. Hystrix. I would be suprised if it survived the winter though.
