I am considering getting some BN plecos from a LFS...You can bet they're gonna be qt'd for a minimum of 6 weeks...My question is this...given that they will be plecos is there anything in particular I should be looking for while they are in QT?...It's just been soooo long since I've ever bought any fish at all from a lfs...I know to look out for Ich etc....but what do you look for as a potential health problem or issue on a BN Pleco?
TIA

Not an expert, but I do know they can have worms. So watch their bellies and their poop. Good Luck!

Watch for sunken belly, which is usually a sign of poor health, not eating well, etc.
