Re: breeding qeustion
I'm not sure about the striped ones. But I believe my spotted ones lay their eggs inside a hole in the driftwood. One of the parents will cover the entrance for what seems like a couple months not even coming out to feed. When it finally leaves the hole I will usually find a few new babies hiding in...

Re: Brazil Export Bans?
There was some kind of temporary ban on some plecos earlier in the year. If I remember right it ended a couple months ago and L-134's L-14's etc are back on Brazillian exporter stock lists.

Re: Does anyone know if this is true?
It is a bizzare relationship for sure. The Corys poke around his gills and back mostly and the cuda stays perfectly still. I always keep one or two Cichlids in the tank for the cuda to eat and in almost 4 months now he has never eaten one of the Corys.

Re: L 260 Sexing please
I sorted those fish out. It was easy to pick out the 2 males, for the 4 females you wanted I went on stomach color and narrower head shape. Not an exact science but hopefully close.
