The issue is that you're getting warnings about fish size vs tank size. Sometimes this matters because of aggression, but that's what I like the tool for most. It gives you temp, parameters, and it gives you a good resource to check stocking issues in that capacity. I was using it more to keep track of fish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s really weird because I was looking for small knife fish put in African brown (not a true knife fish btw, it’s a feather back!) and for some reason it decided to remain in the stocking even after I removed it! So just don’t mind that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nabokovfan87 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 (edited) Looks like a cardinal vs. a neon to me? Disclaimer, I am very bad at tetras. Love them, love the colors, but terrible with them. I just enjoy seeing them, wish I had em, honestly never kept em. I have had some glofish rescues, but we won't count those.

Most "clown plecos" are just sold at the big box store as their "fancy pleco", but finding the L number is a battle. There's 4-5 of them that are commonly sold as one common name. They can be anywhere from $5-$15 depending on the shop and size. If you do happen to find an L number and it's accurate attached to a clown, that increases the cost, especially for some of the nicer panaque species.

TheSwissAquarist Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Here in Switzerland, if there are 20 types of clown pleco, and a fish comes in marked as “Clown Pleco”, it’s immediately the most expensive type 😂! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The endler guy Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share Posted December 14, 2022 this morning I was getting ready for school took a flashlight and peaked in my tank, saw for the first time that my clown pleco wasnt on the middle piece of wood! any one else notice a preference of their clown plecos when it comes to eating wood? (mine seems to like spider wood over Mopani) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
