Oh crap message didn't go thru! I'm 4 beers in and forgot what the hell I said.
Wait did this message go thru? Seems like it got out along your quote statement.

Thanks again for confirming! I have bottom feeder pellets which I do not think it's touched. I don't have anywhere for it to hide. It's far to large for any pvc pipes I have. For this guy not eating he's still pooping like a mofo. Ha. Your pleco looks nice. I'll try some veggies tomorrow maybe that will pick it's energy up.
yeah mine absolutely loves cucumbers and they are cheap too. You could take 2 pvc pipes and put a piece of slate over it or even some driftwood just so he can get under it a little
Good idea! I was caught off guard with this rescue but a cover spot sounds good. I'll try it out.
I came up with an idea for a cheap hide that involves 2 pieces of pvc, a plastic canvas sheet, and some fishing line. I'm building it now I'll take pictures and let you know how they like it. It would be a cheap option for you allowing you to use the existing pvc you have that is too small for him
Here is the cover I made all I did was attach some pvc pipe to the ends of a sheet of black plastic canvas they seem to like it and I plan to make a 2nd one
It's not a P. joselimaianus. Your first guess was correct. P. joselimaianus have short wavy lines. Commons have longer lines(as seen in his last picture)
I can see that now I think the stress colors were throwing me off. Also the top edge of the tail has the brighter yellow coloring like my gold spot
