wow havent been on in a while

any way is it normal for plecos to poop like crazy within 5 secs and almost cover the gravel in a single spot if u scare it ?? i was cleaning my tank and i accidentally scared him real bad and he pooped like crazy

also i think my rams are breeding!! because the female has a fat belly. but what should i do? i cant afford a breeding tank setup so how can get around this?

The pleco thing isnt a big deal. It probably had to crap before anyways because thats all they do.

I wouldn't worry about relocating your rams. If they get the spawning thing down the first time then they will become little terrors guarding their fry.

Your rams should be fine in the tank so long as you have places for the fry to hide. One thing though, some rams don't seem to get it right the first few times and lose their eggs to other tankmates.
