The new plecos! :d
At some stage as they grow up they will be moved from the display tank to the fish room into separate breeding groups. In the meantime will be maintaining a breeding group of L397s very soon to be purchased. Any tips that can be offered from experiences of those keeping them will be gratefully received not that I've not done my reading.
Thanks Teresa

Beautiful plecos. Leopard frog is very small he seems to like hanging out on the fry saver so that's where I will put his food.

Just one of each ATM but as they grow I will move them out into groups. This tank although a community tank will be used to raise apistos, possibly discus, and rare tetras and other plecos of course.

This is one of my mustard spots i already had, a female I suspect as she doesn't cave in the way that my very obvious male does, and there's been an amazing tranformation since getting (rescuing) these two after being kept in substandard conditions at an LFS. i have another female i think in QT ATM that will be moved into this tank all being well.

And then the catfish fairy came again. :))

One more addition, an L333. A yellow king tiger pleco.
Currently the king of an entire cave set!
