what pleco is this?

it may be like my upside down catfish [i think thats what it is] i can go a week and not see it. have two pieces of fake drift wood it staysin a hole in one of the pieces
 
Sorry to hear you can't find him :(. If it wasn't for that, I would have made a crack about your "god" pleco :p:

i hope you have real wood in the tank. clown plecos (panaque maccus) are wood eaters.

So that's why he's never left the wood... Don't they eat algae? :confused:

found the pleco, he was deep in a decoration and when I took it out, I shook it to make sure nothing was inside, he was :) so now my pleco is ok. I added the driftwood today with some java moss to !

I told my daughter make sure you use only luke warm water... no pleco in it, but I do believe now he was :eek: so he got a bath . I am so glad we found him !! if I had not given that decoration a good shaking before removing it all the way .... oh my the poor thing :( thank goodness he plopped right out. :)

glad it was no big deal for the fish. when i moved recently i could not remove one of my bristlenose plecos from his cave in a very large (3+ ft) piece of wood. so i filled his cave with water (probably 2-3 cups), set the wood securely in the back of the moving truck, and hit the road. he was in there 4 hours and the water went down to maybe 55 degrees - it was the beginning of december. once the wood was back in the tank and the tank was filled up, he swam right out, no problems.

i had another one that lived in a wet-dry sump filter for three days. it was not under water, just living off the trickle of water that came down through the bio-balls. still have him.
