So I went to the LFS and wanted to get a pleco. So I see they have all commons but one in a floater. She says its a zebra pleco and is by itself because somone traded him in. She also said he really stressed and thats why theyre trying to keep him isolated. So I bought him for $3 and put him in. It seems like hes paralized. Hes breathing but can move. I can pick him up and turn him over on his back and he wont correct himself. Whats going on? Is this stress or somthing else?
 
Assuming it was a real L46 you got a hell of a deal if it lives but more then likly it is not but hope it works out for ya
 
Yeah I was thinking the same thing.. or that LFS didn't know what they had.... But I doubt it. Wish there were pictures and hope he made it
 
might be some kinda Hypancistrus sp. so would be good to have a good amount of dissolved oxygen in the water with some decent flow. What shape is the fish in?
