easiest kind of placo

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
What is a plAco? :grinno:

Anyway, I don't think most of the common species of plEcos are at all difficult to keep [ex: Bulldog plecos, commons (Hypostomus and Pterygoplichthys), bristlenose, adonis, etc]. With most plecos, all you really have to worry about are tank size and filtration/WC schedule.

Notice that I emphesized the "A" in "placo" and the "E" in pleco. "Placo" isn't a word, the short form of the word "Plecostomus" is pleco.

^^^No, you wouldn't want to put this in a tank that is only 18" wide, would you?

alot of people wont type out pleco because they think their pleco will die if they do. its not common on mfk but i have seen other boards never use pleco, and either type placo or pl?co.

pretty damn :screwy: if you ask me.

That is weird, I thought this thread was about some kind of new food
pleco + taco = placo :ROFL:

I've got 2 of those!!! They're also in a 200 gallon tank tho, stupid people shoving them in a 30...
 
It's all about doing the research on the fish you want. You'll find some want more of a current than others, some hide more than others, different diets, different temps, etc.
