I came across an X-Large Pleco at my LFS. He's about 14-15" in total length. My 4 P's are about 3-4". What do I feed my Pleco? I know he'll go around and clean the tank, but my P's are pretty good at finishing stuff off. Any Ideas? Thanks...

algae waffers ..you can feed the roman lettuce too..rubber band it a piece of rock so it doesn't float

Algea and lettuce also!!! Hope you know that the bigger the Pleco, the bigger the waste they make. You'll have Angel Hair pasta all over your tank if you overfeed your Pleco.

my 12'' pleco loves all kinds of shrimp i usually give him some shrimp pellets.

it will also eat many of your piranhas scraps

I never feed the plecos in my p tanks. They go after the food I give my piranhas and seem to do fine.
