Thanks, I'll be sure to skip the land-based meats, I just picked up some shrimp pellets and dino went crazy for them so I have a food I can keep around in case the shrimp aren't in stock I have plenty quarantined but in case there is a shortage it's nice to have a backup. Thanks for the...

Would love to know if it's cb or wc, I plan on getting a delhezi in a few months. Either way beautiful fish.

Hey thought I'd share some pics of my senegal, as the thread title should tell you his name is Dino. If anyone watched the Flintstones as a kids they'll know where the name came from, the fact that they're sometimes called dinosaur eels made the fit perfect :D Anyway I got him just last...

Was planning to putting that in my last post, but I had class ;) I'm feeding him algae wafers (actually about to head out to pick up some more I'm running low), he'll occasionally eat cichlid pellets that I use to supplement my senegalus' diet, and I give him a thin slice of cucumber every...

Thanks jclyde, as you mentioned some plecos will feed on slime coats, I already have this little guy with my p. senegalus and have only seen him try to eat the slime coat momentarily when he was first introduced to the tank, since then I haven't seen him try. I have his tank on my desk (college...

Check out the "identifying normal behaviors..." thread that is stickied. I personally haven't seen it with my poly but it may be the small gravel substrate I'm using. Not sure if it's a species specific behavior, I have a senegalus, or if thay only do it with the proper substrate.

From my personal experience, I just recently got a "hi-fin spotted pleco" it's probably a colloquial name rather than it's real name, but I caught him sucking on my senegalus's side a couple weeks ago, I haven't seen it latch on since then so I'm not sure if it will continue, but make sure your...
