Look at my beautiful Common

[Plecostemous]

I just thought he looks fascinating with his fins up! What do you guys think? Hes 13 years old and still loves swimming around!

Nice, how long is he? Looks a little thin and short to me for being 13yrs.

His growth was definitely stunted in a previous tank that had nitrates at 90, he has been getting fatter and longer ever since we moved him!

That is what I was thinking. My 1/2 year old common is the same size

Makes sense, glad hes in a better home now

Needs to fatten up a bit, then should be a stunner

Toss some zucchini in there and he’ll be a happy camper. Mine also love carnivore pellets.

Don't know for sure.
10" when I last measured which was about a month ago...
He might not be as long but he is definatly really close for being 12 1/2 years younger
