Notice n e thing weird about this guy

[phaedraeos]

Coloration is not normal on my guy-

Not dropsy either-
This is the result of beng stunted guys and gals- And it's a perfect example of one too-
It lived in he house pictured in the background-
I did not no the guy as stuck in their fo over a year or so...Once I found something moveing in there I pulled it out a this guy appears----Poor fella is all I can say about the situation-And honestly has me feeling like garbage also....Aso not exactly sure when the guy decided to cral in their either-----But I know it's been quite so time since I purchased a busynose pleco...LOL

that makes sense - it honestly looks like the whole area around his head is atrophied (for lack of a better word), especially the bristles. he seems healthy, but definately deformed. was he an adult when you got him, or was he still growing?

Still growing-
I would say if I remember correctly that he was around the 3 inch mark when I bought him-So he did grow quite a bit in their-But it's still not right-I feel bad for the poor fella
He was in too small of a space for too long.Honestly dont know how he ever got food either in the place where he was stuck
