[psychadelicdrea]

i bought this sun devil pleco like a month ago....and i was trying to look up some info on him..but im not finding it under that name.....is their a differnt name for it. I'm assuming its called a sun devil cause its got lil horns on its head......ive been giving him algae wafers and plum forgot they like vegi's duh...i have several otto's and i used to give them zuccini but they wernt ever that intrested in it....any help?

The Rhino pleco has "horns" on it's head.

That is just a guess though, if you can post a picture that would help a lot.

All my pleco's love zuchini, i would try that again. They usually hog most of a slice, pretty interesting to watch.

I went and bought a zuccuni and put it in the tank and the pleco wont touch it....but the otto's love it.....i dunno what the deal is.....i bought some cantelope i guess ill try that...see how that goes over
