Proof that fish do not grow only to the size of their tank

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
And how exactly do "Snails" prove a tanks care?

IMO it can go either way. Some snail infestations can be caused by excess amounts of food left over (over feeding i.e. poor care) or it can come from something as simple as a prolific species of snail, of which most are that I have experienced.

Either way there is no way that pleco grew to that size in that tank it's whole life if you ask me, even the bulletproof reputation this species has. Very sad to see but this is exactly why we need to treat our new members with respect and teach them proper care. Hopefully this person becomes a member one day and our members help him figure what he is doing vs flaming him.
 
WOW I'm not gonna lie, he is pretty big, and defiantly exceeds the "one inch of fish per gallon" rule. The I would say though is about 15-25 gallon. but just watching the video, I would say his measurements are just a little off though... And I've seen Plecos that are close to 2ft. long, at my local Pet store( We Luv Pets ).
