Hi everybody. I am really new, just joined today. I have 3 BN Plecos in a 55 gal tank with my discus. How do I clean in the plecos hiding places? Isn't there poop in there too? I looked everywhere for this info and couldn't find it. Hope I am not repeating something.:-/

Hi and :welcome:,

Good that you have joined us. The normal hidding spots of BN and other in general is very clean. They use their tail to swish out their left overs, so they are very clean. cheers jk :thumbup:

hello and welcome, just lift the caves/wood etc every few weeks and swish water and sand about. poo will disintegrate and flow into filter, unless you have lots of messy plecs, and poor water current....
