I added a 6" dose of Sunshine to my depleted 120 Mata tank. It joins my L029 male adult in the tank along with a full growm Sydont hybrid as big as I have ever seen. The tank is dominated by a 9" Lent Pike that chases my SD but pretty much ignors bottom dwellers. The tank has a huge system of caves and I may not see my goldie for a while!! My L029 has really starting growing bristles....IMG_1440.JPGsunshine.jpg IMG_1444.JPG fuzzy l029.jpg IMG_1443.JPG l029.jpg IMG_1442.JPG l029.jpg

Congrats! The Sunshine plecos are one of my favorites because of their beautiful colors and spots when full grown. If i remember correctly they appreciate some extra protein in their diet.

Lots of food variety in this tank....the Vampire Pleco in the tank has similar dietary requirements and has tripled in size in 5 months.
 
Yeah that thing is going to disappear for a good while lol. I see mine a little more now during feedings. They definitely prefer a protein diet.

The Vampire in the tank disappeared for over 30 days and then emerged fat and happy....this guy is bigger and the tank has fewer caves then before.....the Vampire is out several times a day under the lights now.
