I don't know anything about plecos please help. First off I had to move my common pleco in tank with albino bristlenose due to convict fry. I noticed last night my albino's belly really fat and I can see things moving around in there. Do they even have babies like that ? If it is pregnant what should I do ?:confused:
 
post pics!
 
Im sorry I meant to do that. Will try to get better pics but in basement with camera phone.

Hi,
Pleco's are egg layers so if there's something moving in there it must be a parasite of some sort:confused:
 
Def. not a live bearer.
 
moving around? only way you would see anything moving is parasites. If the only two fish in there is a common and a bristlenose there is no way they will even breed together. She might just be fat but better pics would help.
 
I'm gonna have to go along with others and say that it is completely abnormal for something to be moving in a BN stomach, female or male. So I'm voting some sort of parasitic organism.
