My new Gold Nugget

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Most of the time he's stuck to the side of the tank. It seems my small common black is much more active. One of these nights after lights out I am going to see if the "nug" is out swimming around.
 
What did you pay for him? I am thinking about adding one to my tank and can get a good sized one for about $35 because its on sale. Does he get aggressive/competitive over food?
 
He was about $40. $35 seems like a good deal. I haven't seen any food aggression whatsoever. He's probably one of the most mellow fish in the tank. He also gets along great with my common black pleco. A lot of the time they are both stuck to the same rock.
 
Thanks. What other plecos do you have?
 
A real looker
 
Thankee-sai

might get territorial with the sailfin pleco, especially since the sailfin will grow a lot faster than the gold nugget. keep lots of hiding places and driftwood so they aren't fighting over the same territory and it may work for a while if not forever. hope its at least a 6 foot tank for the sailfin though :D
 
What a beautimous fish! :headbang2 Is that what you named it, Nug? If it's already in the tank with your other fish, could you please take some pic's of the other's in you tank with it too? Nice job on your picture taking too!:D
