Big Common Pleco

Post by alecjbecker »

Up for grabs is a huge normal pleco. I am tearing down my 125 gallon aquarium and am looking for a new good home for it. It is about 10 inches at the moment. Shipping is $45 with live arrival. Please ask any question you may have and pm me with an offer. Thanks for Looking!

Hi alecjcecker,

I don't wish to be a "Debbie Downer," but in all the areas I've lived, people can barely give away large common plecos (assuming you have a pardalis or gibby), and LFS take them back as charity/ acts of kindness.

I think you're request for offers is fine, but I expect it'll be the shipping that kills the deal for most people.

Good luck, I hope you find it a good home locally so shipping isn't necessary.

Cheers,
Eric

You may luck out but the odds are stacked extremely heavy against you. I agree with what Eric says from experience. I've been running a fish rescue for a while now first in NY state now in FL. I currently have 20-30 1.5' common plecos swimming in one of my ponds. They all have been donated to us.

Good luck anyway :)

Try Craigslist? Maybe someone at Tropical Isle Aqu in Framingham has suggestions for rehoming?
