Visited Tropiaquarium (nice store) in Ocean, NJ today. I broke my rule that I was not going to replace the plecos that were lost back in January. I always seem to break my rules when I am with my friend Tommy. They had them listed as L027. However after further looking at them I believe I have L191. They are 3 1/2 inches. I also picked up two Clown Plecos.

Make sure you have plenty of driftwood in the tank as Royals really do need it.

On a second look that fish is in the early stages of starvation. Notice how it's eyes are a bit sunken?

SubRosa don't worry he has more wood than you can imagine. Plus with regular cucumber and bloodworms I think he will be fine.

They are really cute! But wasn't he sad being out of the water for his photo shoot? Also I have noticed all my fish prefer zucchini over cucumbers so I second the thought!
