14"ish chocolate rescue!!!!!!

[headbanger_jib]

today at the lfs i saw a 14" chocolate pleco being kept in a 4x1x1 tank
i asked the owner about it and he said someone had brought it back because it grew too huge for his tank
so i paid 2.5$ for him and right now he is in the 900g koi pond
he is pretty skinny and all but i am sure he will fatten up good in no time at all
here are a few pics

Nice save. Definitely need to fatten him up.

He'll be just fine with some good food. Nice save. For that price, he should have just given it to you.

Why doesn't that guy have a face? Some sort of bizarre accident? Cool fish he's holding though.

Ive always felt weird about holding my fish like that but either way its a nice pickup! Hope he puts some weight on fast!
