    I usually feed my fishies with beefheart when I'm around and my wife will feed them with bloodworm in my absense. Today Like any other day I fed them beefheart and to my suprise my very shy Zebra pleco came out and parked himself on a piece of beefheart and started gobbling on it. I always tot that these plaecos are vegetarian...... is this weird?

    Probably I starved the bugger too long until no choice....
    Cheers!!

    Peter,

    Apparently, there is shortage of stock for Zebra Pleco. C328 have them (not sure the price). I got mine from Gan. Looks very very nice. Now that the guy is coming out to feed, I love it even more.
    Cheers!!
