DAMN! That's a big fuckin pleco. Yeah, I had another one before this one, but he died. He got pretty big, not as big as the one in that pic though. That's fuckin crazy.

pleco's are pretty much just weird shaped catfish, so they'll keep growing as long as their environment allows them to. ive seen a couple at a local chinese pet store about the size of the one in that pic; it was fucking gnar. they don't sell for cheap either.

I have 3 Bristle Nose Pleco's but they only grow to 10-15cm long I think, here's my biggest male being a greedy pig with his Algae tab And here's my blue Ram with Gourami's in the background This is the tank ages ago, and some shots of the Amazon Swords I grew out

I used to have a pleco like that, but he was like an albino. He died one of these

Albino pleco's are cool, I love the Spikes they keep in their cheeks and before they puff them up and look all mean
