Here's pics I had the occasion to take, since I change stuff around in my tank adn added some new fish, I've been seeing ton of my Pleco's, so I wanted to share and thank you for all the help!

So here's my P. Gibbiceps

very nice.. more tank pics of the setup?

My camera just died, but as soon as I get batteries I'll post it. I think I need a bit more plants though and I'll probably be adding much more wood, all the fish seem to enjoy it!

I posted a few pictures in this thread, but it doesn't look like that any more, I had to do some changes. I'll be also adding sand soon: http://planetcatfish.com/forum/viewtopi ... =4&t=23766

I could be wrong, cute little guy by the way, but I am thinking it's not a wood in there that they can rasp on? It looks like some type of bamboo but I could be wrong.

Could they rasp on that? Or would it harbour the good stuff ever like softer wood does? Just wondering.

Since Pterygoplichthys are not wood-eaters, it does not really matter.

But most plecos will do some cleaning of wood, where the wood is deteriorating in the water.

Nope it's wood! It's branches from my yard, and we don't have bamboo in our yard/driveway

really? Wood from your yard. It's so clean and diff looking.

Yup, I got it in branches, cut it in smaller pieces, boiled it for a few hours, then left it in a bucket for 1-2 days, I took off the bark with a knife, boiled it again and put it in the over for 45 minutes. It floated, now it doesn't anymore!!!

Got another pic!
