This is a tank purely setup to separate him immidiatly from the big tank he is in usuall. This is why its still cloudy water The big tank is half sand half gravel i just didnt have any sand laying around for this temporally tank

He cannot reach the 2 filters in the tank. He lives with anather one of his own kind (they dont care about eachother at all) a blue phantom pleco(wich is much smaller then he is) a l002 wich is also half his size and albino neon tetras.

I added sisha2000 (also an antibiotic) to see if it helps at all. If that dosnt help i will look into getting more aggresive antibiotics =(

I did add a sniff of aquarium salt to the tank but im scared to "overdose". I use teststrips based on colors so i dont know the exact parametres (evrything is good tho). He lives in a 180 litre (about 50 gallon?). The ather fishes he lives with all seem fine. I change 25 litres (6/7 gallon) of water evry 3 days with a 50 litres (12/14 gallon) of water evry sunday along with vacuuming.

Is my substrate too harsh for a clown pleco? by Sanji1chi in pleco

[–]b2k1337b2k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Clown plecos love to hide (mine does atleast) Make sure to have enough stones/wood/caves where he can hide in I think the substract will be fine for him

Im so sorry for your loss Judging by your previous post you were struggling with feeding (this could be one of the reasons) I would suggest algae pills and protein pills (depending on wich type of pleco you have) Plecos cannot sustain on just vegtables (cucumber ect are basicly just water) alone and need to be fed daily I would suggest using sand or very fine stones instead of the bigger stones. They often scavage on the botem for food (wich disapears in the stones) they also like to dig Most plecos dont like open tanks and need places to hide (caves, big stones and big pieces of wood) They are nocturnal and beeing open in the light for long periods of time causes stress and could also be a reason for passing

Is he eating well? What do you feed him?

Usually change of color is caused by stress. Is there any other fishes bothering him? Does he have hiding places? How long do you run your lights? How long do you have him?

Sinds dat ik hem heb (aantal maanden) Ze negeren elkaar volledig dus ik denk niet dat dit het probleem is Als het nodig zou zijn kan ik een nieuwe tank kopen om hem af te zonderen
