  • Need to Find Sucker Fish

    I need a new sucker fish for my tank. I put a new 44 gal tank together and am using bigger rocks instead of gravel, so the entire bottom isn't covered and it's hard to keep it clean and the water clear. I have two rather large fish, so need a sucker fish that can hang without getting eaten. I live in Pearland and work downtown. Anyone with suggestions of where I can go?

      Chichlids, and one is very aggressive; always beating up on the other. I inherited them from my mother when she couldn't keep them any longer, and I think they are going to live forever!

        Depending on the size and type, your best bet will probably be a bristlenose pleco.

                    i know its a journey to my house, but i have an 8" common pleco you can have if you come pick him up. he's too big for my tank and i dont want him anymore. he cleans my 125 by himself but i have tropheus that can do his job also. let me know if you're interested. i might be making a trip to houston this weekend and i could possibly meet you somewhere.
                    If it ain't wild caught
                    You ain't doing it right

                      I currently have a 15 gallon, so I am not your answer.
