Wife's new pleco.

[krytan]

Ok my wife has bought a baby flash pleco L204 for her 15g tank. I have already told her that we will have to upgrade her tank but i'm unsure of their tempermant and compatabilty with her stock she already has and was hoping someone could share their experiances with this pleco or any other useful information thank you.

Nice pleco!!

Be sure you have drifwood in the tank for it to eat.

A wood eating species; vegetables are avidly eaten. Animal protein can be given once in a while but should not be the main diet except when conditioning the fish for breeding as it helps the female to mature the eggs.

Pretty pleco. I can see why she couldn't resist!

Very nice! An upgrade will indeed be in order, but with a beauty like that it's so worth it.
