Sorry about your pleco T. They are wonderful fish.

I keep a constant visual on his water parameters, so hopefully my guy will stay strong and healthy.

Yeah he had been in the tank for months and was doing really well.He ate like a horse and was quite active.But he would only eat shrimp, squid or lancefish so I think this led to his demise.I just looked in the tank one day and he was sort of taking a fit.On closer inspection his belly was red and swollen.I floated him in a little bucket in the tank and tried to treat him but it was too late :(
