Common Pleco (Hypostomus plecostomus)
Origin and Habitat:
The Common Pleco, scientifically known as Hypostomus plecostomus, originates from the rivers and freshwater basins of South America, particularly in countries like Brazil, Guyana, and Trinidad. These fish are typically found in slow-moving rivers, streams, and flooded areas, where they use their sucker-like mouths to cling onto surfaces and feed on algae.
Appearance:
Common Plecos are recognized for their armored, brownish-black bodies with distinctive spots or patterns. They can grow to impressive sizes, reaching up to 24 inches (60 cm) in the wild, though they tend to stay smaller in captivity.
Aquarium Care:
Compatibility:
Common Plecos are great tankmates for other large, peaceful fish, but may not be suitable for smaller or more delicate species due to their size and potential for roughness.
Lifespan:
With proper care, a Common Pleco can live up to 10-15 years in an aquarium setting.
Current size is 1.25 - 1.5".
