Hi ive had my king tiger pleco for 3 years now and have always wondered if they need wood? One thing I haven't ever seen is her showing any interest in it?
Anyone know?
Thank you

Hi,

King Tiger Plecos (Hypancistrus sp. L66) do not need wood for nutrition. (- in contrast to e.g. Panaqolus, Panaque, ...)
They need hiding places. And that can also be wood/roots.

Thank you, I thought she didn't need it for nutrition as its not something she bothers with. I was just curious.
