I've had good luck making a small slit in several kinds of veggie & putting a piece of pellet or wafer food in the slit. That will help it to recognize the veg as food.
"common plecos" get to be (depending on species) from somewhere between 4 & 18 inches long. Can you post a pic? What is your tank size?

Commons also need driftwood to rasp on, but it looks like you've got that covered for now.
I've never kept a common, but my bristlenose plecos go nuts over cucumber. They're on it as soon as it hits the bottom of the tank. Zucchini they won't eat.

water parameters are very good, for the moment the tank is ok because his very small , but why is he not eating ? Someone online sad that he will eat after some weeks because he needs to be used with the tank . Is that true and how was the first 2 weeks that you guys bought a pleco ?

I'm going to say Tabimin is ok for many plecos (but I haven't seen it in many years). Look at my previous post on how to get plecos to try new foods. Some plecos are vegitarian for the most part, some (many) are omnivores & some are carnivores.
I did not see a pic of your fish, just wood & food. Try again for a pic of your pleco please.

This is his fav spot . And by the way if hes vegetarian with what should i feed him ? If you say go and buy blood worms in the pet shop is pointless. Im living in Albania where the pet shop owner says wash your filter with tap water , and that food pic was the only food i could find for pleco here! Can i give him worms directly from the ground? And What else should i know about feeding pleco
