Ok so I've been trying to pellet train my new dat, I've been tossing in medium pellets and my poly and arrow go after them no problem but then I look up from my desk and I watch my pleco inch up the glass and just snatch up two pellets, has anyone ever seen this before? I was shocked personally

Just make sure it doesn't go for your fingers! I heard they can be dangerous. (I'm not serious, but some people here will get what I'm referring to.)

Many plecos are carnivores...

Even my BN's get into the madness if I soak pellets in garlic guard before adding them to the tank

I've seen my pleco do it, and even my panda loaches in my community tank just last night, which was a surprise for me...

Ive had Plecos flip on their backs to suck pellets from the surface, swim right into the fray competing with the cichlids.
