pleco playing dead

I think there was a post sometime in the past about their fish playing dead. I though I'd add my albino bristenose to the group. Not sure what that's all about. He just fine swam off when I poked him.

I've seen plecos do that before. Nothing to worry about.

Yeah I'm not worried it's just to funny to see. Maybe he has narcolepsy

I had a bn that used to do that all the time. It scared me the first few times. He would right himself up as soon as I approach the tank, as if when someone catches you doing something dumb lol

They do look like they're in a deep slumber.
