It's finally time for some of the baby L144 BN plecos to be sold. There are long fins and short fins, all from the long-finned parents. This batch hatched 6/22 and are 1.25" to 1.50". Long finned babies are $14, short fins are $7. Will ship using USPS priority mail. Pics of mom, dad and babies below.

How much for two to 03766? I bought two of your sp. pucullpa awhile back. These blue-eye ones are very pretty.
 
Can you sex the babies?
 
PM sent fishie111.

Sorry clb2196 the babies are months away from being able to determine their sex.
 
Down the line I would like to introduce these into a breeding group.

So are these the same as Albino Bristelnose Longfins regulars besides the blue eyes?

Like if I introduced a male into my breeding group, some babies would be blue eyedd?

Thanks
 
They are not the same species as common albino bristlenose. They are originally from a single amelanistic male which was exported from Paraguay and was spawned with a normal colour female and later bred back with his own daughters to fix the mutation. Amelanistic is the absence of dark colored pigments that results in a yellow colored fish (as in L144) with normal coloured eyes. This is different than albino fish. The L144 are not commonly available. I wouldn't breed them to albino longfins. Those of us that are breeding them are trying to preserve the line and keep it true.
 
I understand, thanks for clearing that up
 
ooooooh i MUST figure out a way for me to have some of these fellas, im a "breeding" hobbyest i guess ya could say. Ive bred almost every fish i ever owned..lol, so when i do ill be sure to keep the line pure! ;-) now to figure out where the new tank is gona come from! Muahaha! LOL!
