The first time he did this, I about had a heart attack.
I thought Gus had died. Turns out he was sleeping. He falls asleep while attached to the underside of a branch and then just... lets go and falls/drifts down to the bottom of the tank?!!
This is a regular occurrence! Eventually one of the other fish comes along and wakes him up and he just rolls over and goes about his business. Does anyone else have a plecostomus that likes to drop like overripe fruit from a tree while sleeping? I have had a number of plecos in my life and none of them have exhibited this talent. (It took me a while to get halfway decent photos of this so that I could prove I was not making it up.)
