jnite Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 I have a pleco with light brown something on him, by his nose. It almost looks like somebody just put brown paper on that spot. I've never seen anything like this before and was just wondering if anybody might know what it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rED O Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 can you post a picture? I will help others to identify the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Is it a Bristlenose Pleco? If so, this could just be some bristles starting to form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnite Posted November 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) I will see if I can get a pic, but you know how that goes.lol And no he's not a bristlenose, he's already probably 8 inches long. My bad I forget what kind he is, ummm he has really large scales, larger than most. I Will see if I can find the species. He is an L138, with the large scales Edited November 27, 2008 by jnite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soliver Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Its hard to tell without a picture but it could also be he has warn a part of his scales down. Constant rubbing i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracked maniac Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 could he have burned his nose on the heater? that is quite common Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
