HEllo MFK,

Just wanna share with you guys, that i'm getting my very first ROYAL PLECO! haha its coming today, getting it at 8". gonna collect it later in 4hours time!
Really excited. Pictures will be uploaded as soon as i have collected it! haha
 
Congrats on the new Pleco! Get ready to start sucking up poop at least once a week! I have an 8" and a 6" royal and I vacuum up poop twice a week when I do water changes. Not that much of a hassle, and they're worth it.
 
Nice.. great fish and 8" is a good size as it takes a long time to get them there.. Make sure you have good filtration and some drift wood in your tank!

Enjoy!
 
Here are the pics! not very clear, cause i was so excited to put it in the tank i forgot to take a picture of if in the bag... haha oh well here it is.. is this really a royal pleco?? its not what i expect it to be.. and its 10" :)

can you explain what a good filtration will be.. mines just a sump tank, and i believe my medias are good enough :) anyway planning to change a new powerhead for my sump tank, i'm using an ATMAN 107 currently. Saving for ehiem, but no idea what model is good for my tank.
