Okay, We got this aquarium and fish from my Father In Law. It came with a Glass Cat (which died during the move) and two Plecos.
Until I found this site I had know idea there was more than one species of Plecostamus.
Just yesterday one of the Plecos died, so now we are down to one.
I have a digital photo that I could email to anyone who thinks they could ID this fish.
First I will tell you a bit about it...
It is brown with orangey stripes. It is territorial/aggressive towards its own species. It is super shy and likes to hang out all day stuck to the inside of a hollow log. When we had two and they would fight the colours seemed to become more vibrant. This could be my imagination though (I swear the colours of my male long finned Rosy Barb get brighter too).
There is algae on the glass of the aquarium, but this guy doesn't seem to be interested in it, or he is too shy during the day to come out and eat.
Please email me or reply with your email address to this post and I will email tou the photo.
Thanks.
