Oh and!
The pleco seems to be fine. Apparently they are nocturnal creatures and don’t move as much during the day. so right now – Enji (my kid apparently is creatively challenged about names….) seems to be doing well. (at night at least – during the day – hibernates.)
Which – LM has said – “next time, I want to get a fish that swims around.” I’m thinking though that we’re at full capacity for our little starter aquarium though.
Yeah, plecos are night owls. Over the years I have had several fish that I had too stay up late at night with the lights out to make sure they still existed somewhere in the tank!!
