I just fished out these little lads from their parent’s tank. They are from one of my first spawns of Hypancistrus debilittera, L129 and I believe that I managed to catch roughly two thirds from that batch.
It is very important for the growth and well-being of young plecos that they are not kept in too crowded conditions. Even more so when several batches share the tank as the smaller ones will have a very tough time competing for food and hiding spots against their larger siblings.
These fish were moved so that their younger siblings can get a chance to grow properly and become strong little fishes.They have now moved to a 72 litre tank with strong filtration and plenty of hiding spots.
