Help me choose a pleco

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My 7inch 273 isn't shy at all. He competes well with my large L25 & L600 & never backs down to them. When food hits the water he scrambles around with the rest of my plecs very well

Jay think you could post a puc of your 273 and 75 ?


Wow very nice teq
What are you feeding them

My L014 is not shy but not active. He hides almost all the time but is in a hiding spot where all it does is block the light from hitting him so i can see him. About once every month he is on the glass in the light. I can see my L600 about half the time but he comes out the open about once a week. It is very hard to know a pleco will hide because sometimes i don't see a pleco for months then all the sudden it is out almost every day.
 
As much as I want to get raw shrimp because I know he'd love it, for the last year I've just fed him a mixture of what I feed my cichlids, being a combination of various NLS sinking pellets. Twice a week I put in something like a half of eggplant, 2 zucchini, squash, bell peppers. etc Eggplant is nasty to clean out but jesus, you'd be amazed how much gets downed in one night. I do eggplant once a month because of how nasty it is to clean.
 
My l200 doesnt touch veggies he pretty much eats what I feed my cichlids to... (nls/algaemax/omegeone kelp pellets/frozen shrimps/shrimp pellets)


Im kindnof stuck between l600 l273 l75 geez I was never into plecos but now there are too many to choose !
