I love my huge, common pleco. He is the ONLY tankmate I've been able to find for my Fahaka, mainly because I got him when he was about 10X as big as the Fahaka and he only really comes out after dark, when the puffer tends to bury itself in the sand. I'm aware this peace could end at any moment, but for now I'm loving it.

Anyway, today the lights were off and I noticed the pleco on the front of the bowed part of the tank, and I've never seen him there before. So I had to try to video his awesome cleaning job, and of course my camera light totally scared him off.

Anyway, here he is with a brief shot of my Fahaka, Punch, floating by. I hope I haven't scared him away from that glass pane, haha. I basically went all paparazzi on him and he was not having it.
