    My poor Plecos are employers in this establishment..... Any of my tanks beginning to show a little green on the glass gets a Pleco moved to it and in less than 2 days, even the worst looking tank is back to it's original splendour......

    I'm starting to feel guilty 'bout the overworked and underpaid abuse of this system, but I wonder if they mind all that much as I've seen an acceleration in their growing rate and I do move every one's favourite rock with it to the new environment so that there's at least something familiar in the constant new environment.....:bigsmile: (sometimes a new home up to 3 times in 1 week)

    err.. not really.. because moving a fish changes the water quality, temp environment etc.. all these contribute to stress.. so it cant be good for ur fish..

    maybe try looking at the cause of ur algae?
