hi =)
i bought a large pleco (12 inch) from a private sale, and almost immediately on the trip home, it was barking. it was a very loud and short cough-like bark, loud enough to startle me and hubby.
we got pleco home and into the tank, and it would bark roughly every 20-30 minutes.with each bark a large bubble would come out its mouth. later that night it randomly darted all the way across the tank and lay on its side, propped against a couple of rocks. within an hour it was dead.
id had it maybe 12 hours, so me and hubby were both rather miffed and upset.
does anyone know what could have been the problem and why it would bark????
i have other plecos, and have never in my life heard one make any noise.
google isnt much help lol
