I call him Suckface, seems appropriate. He looks so weird, and prehistoric.
He’s really rather freaky!
Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. 
MM started on Sept 29, 2008 – THANX to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

I love the fish! They are so fun to watch while they travel across the glass.
farmablefibres said,
They are such wierd fish. Whe we had one (fish was a while ago, I’m allergic to the food), my husband had nightmares about the pleco leaving the tank!
Karen said,
Ya, it’s a little freaky, but has beautiful markings.

I don’t think I’ve never been so up close and personal with a fish.
Heather T said,
I just love the sucker fish. We had one with our 50 gallon tank, a long time ago….wish I still had that tank. You know, I tend to get rid of things, in the moment, only to want them back later. We just don’t have the space to keep something that we’re not using. Sorry, thinking out loud
Great shots of your little sucker!!
Tammie said,

cool fish.
I had similar ones once in my youth.
strange, I can´t find the permalink to your post.
But I guess /macro-monday/ will do.
Maria Berg, Sweden said,

Evelyn said,

Jane said,
Great underwater captures of the fish, like the mouth shots:)

I think I’d call him ugly!
EG Wow said,

Misalyn said,
Yes, a bit freaky. I guess you have a polarizer when you captured these photos. Really nice!
Shifan said,
Beautiful picture. I like 1st one most.
Laura Hegfield said,
I dare say, my mother would compare my mouth to this one when I was a teenager…my girls are nearly this wide at times…but I do think mine was bigger and sassier….sorry Mom!
Autumn Belle said,
Suckface is definitely an appropriate name. I think he is good for the aquarium.
Sarah said,
Great Macros. We have three of these. i will have to try and take some photos.
Self Sagacity said,
Nice shot, but when i first looked, it was yucky…sorry. thought it was some other kind of slimy animal
Sherrie said,
Hi Lisa,

Barbara said,
I like your fish, and the name is perfect. Thanks for Macro Monday. I think my weeks need some structure other than my job.
Lesa said,

Misty Dawn said,
Oh, I love me a “Plecky” (that’s what I always called them). I really miss having an aquarium!
dutchbaby said,
Congratulations on nailing this shot. I’ve tried to take quality pictures of our aquarium, but they never succeed.
Mama Zen said,
How cool!
Kala said,

Charlene said,

Happy MM!
Jenners said,
He is well named.
Nancy said,
Oh my! That is a freaky looking fish. Great capture!
Mildred said,
He he he! I took some pictures of that freaky fish in an aquarium in a shopping center in Nancy, East of France!
Yours are better than mine! Thanks for sharing them;o)
Have a nice and happy day¤
Bom said,
Great shot Lisa! Definitely freaky!
Andy said,
They really are strange looking fish.
Lori said,
Whenever we have had fish we always have at least one Pleco. The first one I ever had I named “Simon”. And after that any one like that I have owned I always call Simon. If we have more than one in the same tank, then it’s Simon1, Simon 2, and so on, so when I saw these pictures my first thought was, “Oh, look! She has a Simon!!” It just seems like the right name.
