Stef Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I have a single female BN Pleco in a 20 gal long who is constantly digging up the sand. The sand is capping an inch of Controsoil. You can see some of the balls of soil coming up. She’s been separated from a male since April when I unexpectedly got “blessed” by two back to back batches of babies. Will she ever stop digging? Is she egg bound? She has a cave and large driftwood pieces. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has a cave and large driftwood pieces. Is it possible she is very hungry? Just looking for food? Do you give her sinking food of some sort? I have a BN but it's still pretty small, no digging and I sure hope it doesn't start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stef Posted August 25, 2022 Author Share Posted August 25, 2022 @Wrencher_Scott I do supplement her with Xtreme sinking wafers and Repashy morning wood along with bottom scratcher plus canned green beans. She is doing major “burnouts” in the sand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
