Saw these: Ancistrus sp. "Snowflake"
Pretty much fell in love. Beautiful fish. Ideal would be a female, I've never been fond of the "bristles" on BNs but the females are really pretty. Every other time I've discovered a "designer" pleco I like I've later found they run $100+ for a single fish, and I simply can't afford / justify that. My current common pleco is going to eventually outgrow my 29G and is insanely destructive besides (eats about 1/2 the plants in the tank, even if I feed heavily) so even though he's awesome and really pretty he needs to go. That said I love plecos and would like to have one to replace him.
Please tell me these guys can be found for something resembling a reasonable price? I haven't even looked yet, don't want to kill the dream...
