dobby968 Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 So my pleco just started doing this thing where he shoots up to the top of the tank and back down again? Is this normal? is there something wrong with him? my bandit corey does this sometimes too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Chicklets Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 It is probably fine but keep an eye on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vapor Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Be careful as one of mine actually jumped out of the tank a while back. Never thought of plecos as jumpers. I think it's normal though for them to suddenly go darting to to top, mine also did it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainmaker69 Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Mine used to do that all the time, but after he got bigger than 8" he seemed to quit doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrie Lee Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Mine does that too. They also love swimming against the current created by the bubble wand. Crazy fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacey Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Mine only does that during a water change.......... as if he's checking to see how much water he's got left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
