Picked up a baby albino bristlenose pleco last night for my 29 did my usual 30 minute acclimation addin water every 10 minutes. As soon as I released him he went right to work cruising the glass eating all the goodies. This morning I went to check on him and flipped the light on for a minute looked all over . Nowhere to be found.. then spotted him cleaning the inside of the lily pipe I have on my SunSun302 . Not only a great cleaner but a strong little swimmer

What do you charge for cleaning?

I could do with hiring him for my aquariums since the only cleaner is me now

That's a very nice looking tank. May I ask what plants are in it? I spot some Moneywort (I have some myself).

Thanks. I don’t believe it’s moneywort. This tank was outside over this past summer and all I planted in it was a few stems of Bacopa and Anacharis and guppy grass. the substrate is organic soil capped with PFS. When it was out there I had a solar power air pump running a dual sponge filter but since moving it inside I recently added the 302 . It also acted as my birdbath

The birds bathing in that aquarium will have dropped a multitude of seeds into it.....they were lucky birdies to have such a posh bath

Yes and up front at the bottom there are actually some blades of grass in there. Also forgot to mention my frogbit wasn’t doin to well in my 10 so I dropped 4 small pieces and about a month later the entire top of the tank was covered in it. 95% of it remains outside in the tote till I figure out a plan for it. Also loaded with ramshorn snails

Sure. BTW, I have your pic done, I just need to upload it.
The thing about the other picture was how many "flat" colors there were (the wall, curtains, table etc.).
I like the first one I did of the pups more.

A couple months I believe. It's either zucchinI or summer squash. I have both mixed in a bag. He's on the driftwood most of the time too.

Edit hoping for a female.....Not fond of the bristles so much. Wanted a clown but they hide all he time. Let me know when you find out how to sex them!

Absolutely and u do the same if you find out as well. I’m actually hoping for a nice male with a big Medusa face . Yes I have a clown in my 20 long and he/she hides all the time hence it’s name hidey it’s always behind the dual sponge filter. It’s too bad cause it has such nice markings
