View Full Version : FREE 2 Plecos 8 inches each - New York City
They are too big for my 10 gallon. They pick at each other a little bit, but in general get along, and are in great health. Their names are Bobby Short and Fiona. Please come pick up from West side midtown Manhattan. I don't want to ship them. PM me, or answer here. Thanks.
This is Bobby Short

i dont mean to sound mean, but why did you have 2 plecos in a 10 gallon?
I've had them for years. They might even be from a previous tank. I was never told that 10 gallons wasn't big enough for them. But now I can tell, because I cannot keep the tank clean enough for my snails. People on the board informed me that the Plecos were too big for the tank, and I am trying to find them a new home. They are just regular plecos. The photo I took is not very good, but they look like this:

ooo. ok. i had a common pleco in my 10, then my 29 theni got rid of em when i learned they get as long as my arm.
Bobby Short and Fiona now have a new home in a 55 gallon tank. Tabby and John responded to a note I put on Craig's List, and came and got them today. I think they are going to be very happy.
That's a great Carlin quote, btw.
