Wow, old thread! he's a big boy now, somewhere between 16-18" He runs the tank too, it's funny to watch the oscar and the pleco squabble.

[Virtuoso2K12]

So any video or pic on the update of his size,wats hios name?

[Alan R]

Sweet! I have a big pleco, but mine stays in hiding all the time. Wish it swam around like yours.

What's up with that rock cave? That's very cool. Is it a DIY? Got any info to share on that or maybe a link to a DIY thread?

[Virtuoso2K12]

yeah any DIY thread i need to make me one,thanks.

[cvermeulen]

His name is squeegee ;)

The most recent pic I have is this one:

I don't think it's too new though. I'll get a clip next time he's doing his squeegee thing.

The caves are fiberglass. The build thread is a year old or so, but it's still there: http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=113166

Those caves are extremely impressive. I have never worked with fiberglass. Looks very intimidating for a DIY job for someone with no experience at all.

[Virtuoso2K12]

o wait thats the 180g you made?Your fish sure has grown,very nice videos.

[cvermeulen]

Yeah that's the 5.5 x 2 x 3 I built last summer. The oscar really has grown up quickly. The aro from the original video died of causes unknown - I think the oscar just stressed it to death. The goldfish is in my other tank with my TSN and some other friends. I'm setting up a 120 to redistribute my stock a bit (the tsn has outgrown the 50gal, duh). That should buy me a year or so before I need to built a 3-4 foot wide tank.

I want to go 12ft long x 4ft wide x 3ft tall. We can all dream though huh? I need to move out of this rental before I do something like that.

[Arturo]

Wow! that's one big @ss pleco. Very nice.

[m4rk13m4rk]

man those caves are CRAZY!!!!
great plecos!
