U mean u cant see it every where in the tank? have u tried over turning the DWs? All plecos hides and move about when the lights are off. Probhably, iz the territorial behaviour of the L114 tat drives his 2 mates out of the dug out. Otherwise most should be hidding.

Me no "lao jiao"

Hmm.. I will make sure that there is line of sight between all plecos and me. You may put all kinds of ornament that you want. But I need to be able to count the fishes
