I don't know much about plecos, the one in my tank has white blotches all over him, I have a heater guard so its not from that, is this normal? or is he sick and I should take him out so my P doesn't get whatever he has? Here's a pic.

I don't know about being active, he usually just sits and sucks in one spot until my P bothers him, so I guess so. I throw in an algae wafer once every day or so, and they disappear, so I imagine he's eating them, ive never seen it though. And I have had him for about 3 weeks. Thanks, I was just worried for my P is all.
