These were found only in rocky areas, where the rocks help create current.
Chaetostoma Plecos caught yesterday
- Thread starter duanes
- Start date
I want to live where you live. Go to a river instead of a fish store. 
It is a retirement choice I do not regret.
Being a bit small, the ones netted the other day were put in the sump, and are doing well.
Since the heavily planted sump sits in direct sun, for at least 6 hours per day, algae can get thick on the glass without them.
They also have access to the biomedia area, and help clearing mulm.
They seem to appreciate any amount of extra current offered, to the extent that they crawl above waters surface in the tanks overflow to graze in areas above the water line, in the splash zone..
Below, I could not cast the net without bring one or 2 in, that wouldn't fit in my bucket.
These were all returned to the river
