    Red face oops. BN stuck in squash

    I added a slice of summer squash to my tank last night and stuck a fork in it as always. I woke up this morning to my Bristle Nose tearing around the tank dragging the outer ring of squash and the fork. He ate the inside out, as they always do, then crawled into the center and got stuck. Dummy. The fork tore up the hairgrass a bit but all is well and the BN has lost his halo.

    First time I've seen that little trick.

    That would have been funny to see. I just love it when plecos do silly stuff like that.
    If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.
