Hi,
I think Bristlenosed are the best, they don't grow above 6", easy to breed, easy to care for, common, inexpensive, great algae eaters and compatible with almost any freshwater fish that isn't really aggressive. Thanks,

I second the vote for the gibbiceps - if you have the space.
And everyone should have bristlenoses.

wow nice fishy :D im afraid your fish isn't L200. Altho there seems to be two plecs, am I right? there is 2 very fuzzy pictures, which look similar to L200 or even a scobiancistrus sp. But Im pritty sure they is not ;)

This is your fish

This is L200 (lemon green plec)


Hopefully some smart pl*c freak can come up with the answer

1st- it's Green with some spots and a seam it is L047 most likely, follow link provided: L047

Next issue, what the heck happened here? I'm gone for a couple month's and I lose all my Beautiful stars? In all seriousness the new place looks great. I assume Mo is to thank for this.

Finally the best looking Non-Ultra rare plecos are L134 or L260

Best Rare...well that's easy



Hey Mo I like the new format, drop me a line when you get some time.
