i had a comman pleco with a bent spine a couple of years back when he waas bout 8 inches long i let him in our dam go cos he was getting a bit big. my dad cought him a few weeks ago and he was well over 3 feet long
I have a leapord pleco (I think the lfs called it a red-finned leapord pleco but the fins dont look red to me?) that I have had for about 6 months and he has atleast doubled in size:
And also just a couple days ago got a Golden Nugget Pleco. It has pretty much hid most of the time the last couple days so I photographed it at night with the lights out. Kinda tough to do but it came out decent:
EDIT> Unfortunately since the third or forth day after putting the Gold Nugget Pleco in the tank we have never seen him since :sad:
1 royal
1 "watermelon seed"? ( looks like a spotted royal 2 me...)
1 tapajos zebra (L134?) i think they call'em leopard frog plecs?
1 mango
1 blue panaque
5 zebras ( L046)
I am worried about the gold nugget in the pic above... havent seen him since the 3rd day after I put him in. I fear he might be dead. :sad: My leopard is doing well though, and getting to be about 3" long or so. I got an apisto the same trip as the gold nugget and the apisto died a couple weeks ago - dang that was a $50 bill for 2 fish, most I have spent yet. Hope my catfish didnt get em, I really need to get rid of the cat its much too big.
