These are all supposed to be L333 but are they? #1 http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j267/steveandlisa_photos/SSA50003.jpg #2 http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j267/steveandlisa_photos/SSA50009.jpg http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j267/steveandlisa_photos/SSA50010.jpg #3 http://i82.photobucket.com/...

Thanks Yann.
I was amazed at the amount of odontodal growth it has, i never really noticed it until i took the pics

Want to be sure this is L129. Is it? Sorry but these are the best pics i have at the moment. It is approx 5cms TL. http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j267/steveandlisa_photos/IMG_03.jpg http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j267/steveandlisa_photos/IMG_02.jpg http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j267/stevea...

Thanks all.Fingers crossed i get a second spawn.Oh! and Tom........Gay Pleco i had visions of an L333 with a large moustache and wearing a leather codpiece.

Lisa

Thanks Tom. What i would like to know is.... what's the possibility of a second spawn? And has anyone spawned L199 and can give me a few pointers?


Cheers
Lisa (suddenly feeling so maternal)

Thanks mats. This is the first pleco i have ever bred.I'm hoping there are lots more than the 6 juveniles i have spotted up to now.They are very tricky to photograph as they hide as soon as i approach the tank, but i shall keep trying

Hi I managed to capture a photo of 1 of my L333 juveniles in the breeding cave with adult. http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j267/steveandlisa_photos/172d0875.jpg Juvenile on filter outlet a little more info can be found on my post here http://www.plecofanatics.com/forum/showthread.php?t=17237 http:...

Anyone interested? I have had fish from him, he's ok.

I hope their testicles grow square and fester at the corners!

What L number is this hypancistrus?





Thanks

Hi I have received 2 new Juwel tanks today (what a lovely valentines gift :D ),a rio 125Litres & rio 180Litres. I was just wondering if the CompactH filtration in these tanks is adequate enough if i was to stock both with about 6 Hypancistrus Sp & about 6-10 small tetras(or other smallish br...

Hi
I would guess at hypostomus villarsi or possibly L60.

Definately hypostomus IMO.

lisa

I've had no problem with mine.They are taking bloodworm,algae wafers,catfish pellets and they go crazy on chopped shrimp/prawn.I've also seen them grazing on cucumber.
Just because you haven't seen them eating doesn't mean they aren't.



best of luck
lisa

Hi
What top/mid-water fish should i choose to share 180 litre with L333? Temp 27c,pH 7.4 no plants just sand,rocks & piles of bogwood and a fast current.

I know there must be loads to choose from,but what would you recommend.

Nothing too big though 3" max.

thanks
lisa

Hi I suspected it was l66,it certainly looks better in the pic than it really is,the stripes are barely visible.It's still a nice fish though,almost 15cm and in good health.Was it worth the £12GB i paid for it,i think so :) I've not seen it eating yet but food seems to be dissappearing so i think i...

Thanks for trying But it definately isn't L002 or L038 the lines are much thinner and broken,i'm sure it's a hypancistrus but not sure of the L#.L066 is still the closest match,looks similar to the close up of head pic in cat-e-log. BTW it's not as orangey/brown as it appears in the pic(probably the...

What an image ,singing pleco's,or would it just sound more like GARGLING

I'll be the one singing if i can breed them

lisa

What is this,cost me £12 from a friend.



Sorry the photos aren't much to go on.

thanks
lisa

Hi Just thought i'd let you all know they are settling in nicely after a little scrappin' http://img237.exs.cx/img237/9130/fighting8qn3kk.jpg (no harm done). I've decided to name them :) Dave Dee,Dozy,Beaky,Mick & Titch. http://img77.exs.cx/img77/2735/titch0ss.th.jpg http://img77.exs.cx/img77/21...

Great
Thanks for the link Shane.

Does anyone know of any good DVD's or Video of pleco's

Thanks

Hi Tom Cat-e-log says pH 6.4 - 7.6 for L260 arabesques.They aren't too fussy about water parameters and have been known to spawn in ordinary(Dechlorinated) tap water with a pH of 7.5 - 8.0. I would lower the pH gradually though so the L260 can slowly become accustomed to it. What Cichlids are you pl...

Hi sexing of peckoltia Sp is pretty much the same. Males have the odontodes (hairs) on the pectoral fin rays and rear half of the body,females do not,but females look much broader than the males when viewed from above. I doubt they loose the hairs as they age,i believe it becomes more noticable in a...

I will definately be keeping an eye on them.
I didn't realise they were so nasty toward each other, i've never seen my nuggets or arabesques behave so aggressively so was a little surprised to see it occuring. It was quite amusing to watch though

Thanks
lisa

I stand corrected

I'm still a novice in the pleco world

can't say i didn't try though,still lots to learn, must get studying

lisa

Hi I caught two of my L134's behaving aggressively to each other,in fact one had the other in a pin-fall :? (see pic).This behaviour went on for 5 mins or so and had me a little worried.I've never seen pleco's doing this and was wondering if it is just a sign of dominance or something else.Also is t...

The upper part of it's body looks like l27, the l330 is spotted as opposed to striped.The snout doesn't look spotted enough to me, to be l330.

Still confused though

lisa

Me thinks L027 xingu also.

cheers
