Pleco ID please
so full post would be trying to get a definitive answer on I.D. of some of these plecs must be nigh on impossible until you know the distinguishing features that set one from the other, teeth, scaling. buccal flaps, fin shapes, number of fin rays, colouration, patterning, adult size, clouration changes in fish during its development, potential stress colouration, locational varieties, variation in water quality, current vs filtration, and the very possibility that it made it to NZ as unidentified species and is therefore a good price for the importer, we are just conjecturing as to what it may be

as adodge said seperate him and don't worry about putting into the hospital tank as you could use the water from existing tank when you change him over in my experience the tonic you have plus some salt and frequent water changes can help the problem and even make it dissapear, but i have had it come back later on healthy fish can be resistant to many things but when they are stressed in any way their auto immune systen can lower and allow diseases to break out your fighter could live in a small amount of water to make the treatment easier- Rescaped tank ideas?

they put the law in place so there would be no chance of any being transferrred to other waterways either deliberately or by accident i have seen people selling them on trademe as cold water guppies, ads quickly withdrawn if you net a gambusia while netting in streams you are not to return it to the water and it must be killed - Rescaped tank ideas?
