Some years ago, ( 2008 or 9), I was in a pet store that was going out of business. In their tank they had 2 starry night plecos that had been returned after getting too big for their tank. I bought them and put them in my 3000 sq foot fish pond. Yesterday while throwing floating fish pellets for the pm feeding, I was shocked to see a black shadow about 18 inches long pass over the shallow sand bank. Maybe bigger. The pond is stocked with blue gill bream about sixty of which were caught in a local river when they were small. They have grown and bred up and I occasionally fish a few out for food. My question is: if I happen to hook the starrynight pleco, can it be eaten?
