He nibbled on my fingers!

I gave mine treats of shrimp pellet, raw prawn, tons of fresh veggies, and floating cichild pellets. Mostly veg, but little treats of meatier foods can help draw them out for hand feeding. I've also noticed plecos in general really appreciate a shedule. Food on a certain cycle, at a certain time will have them on the glass waiting for it in short order. There's a great sticky on pleco diet up top, go check it out.

I guess s/he thinks I taste good. Every single time I do something in the tank he comes over. i took this today, a lot of glare from sunlight, so had to change it sepia. My fingers look fat, water puts 10 lbs on you, right?

cute TNmom. Your hand doesn't look fat, but the sepia makes the pic look like an old fish book (& no, your hand doesn't look old either)
