Hey,
I just ordered a pair of royal plecos and they came in pretty bad shape. Their fins are frayed, their eyes are sunken in and their bellies are concave. They arent sluggish however, so I do have some hope for them, but I was wondering what I could do for them. My tank does have driftwood in it for them to munch on, although theyre keeping towards the rocks, and I feed spirulina wafers at night for my other bottom dwellers (rhino pleco, two red tail sharks, featherfin cat). Any suggestions on how to beef them up (one's for a friend so id REALLY rather not lose them or im out of 15 bucks )
