Your fish has small head pattern so it's LDA07. LDA07 isn't L114, LDA07 looks more like "real" L600.

I think too 3rd female. 1st and 2nd male.

Thanks. I like it a lot too.

Ok. Great. Do you have pictures?

How long is your biggest L097? TL. Age?

Got a decent pic of my female specimen. Loving the blue body color.

I would say both sexes. Head shape is different. Nice fishes. I have same quality 25 cm female. Would love to have male also.

Very beautiful ancistrus! Looks a bit like Ancistrus sp. Rio Paraguay.

Quite small pattern in this L114 head? Male 23-24 cm.

Hi. I received an interesting Pseudacanthicus piece a month ago. It's 30 cm male with "pure" dark black body with bright white spots. I find it interesting that L097 is said to be smallest pseudacanthicus but this male is already 30 cm at a age of ~6 years. So could this be the controversial ...

I got another piece (sorry pic quality). Looks like stuby's fishes above. Sold as L124 too. L006 looks a bit same too.
Edit. This actually can be L124. Looked more closely of L124 pattern variations.

Thank you all for interest. Jobro thanks. Good to know. I only feed discus with "dry" foods and they have seem to be okay for an year. Shane: Yes it's quite well known that wildlife export is illegal in Venezuela and I have wondered German importers statement too. What ever and where these fish came ...

I have now two pieces. These both panaques are from the same group of four fish that were exported from Venezuela to Germany. Both are about 30 cm long. 2nd piece: 20170716_122306netti.jpg DSC_0166 (2)netti.jpg DSC_0178 (2)netti.jpg 20170719_222310netti.jpg This 2nd piece has longer whiskers and ...

Some pictures.

1st piece. Old brownish whiskers. 1st. New whiskers.

Okay thanks.

Doesn't seem to be L015 peckoltia vittata? Could it be L140? Suggestions? Sold as L015.

Greetings

I hope you didn't pay for it as much as histrix costs. It's just a common pterygoplichthys pardalis.

Hi, I have been keeping my blue eye in average 29 celsius water almost an year and there hasn't been any issues. Eating very well Novo Pleco XL tablets and very small quantities of other foods. I will add pictures later. Interesting detail is that it dropped all it's brownish whiskers and grew new ...

To be honest, I feel fish number 1 is a L387. His small spots stop at the eyes. But L147 has small spots back to the dorsal fin. What I am way more curious about are the other 2 fish. Can you get a picture of their caudal fins? looks like the caudal is spotted as well? It's no typical L147 on any ...

As i said these are not my fish, but I think the most interesting thing is that there is no similar fish in L-catalogs(with pictures) as pleco number 1. Of course there is color/pattern variation but I wouldn't say it's the same L-number.

Not my fish. These species are not familiar to me. Ancistomus? L147 seems quite close, but I wouldn't be sure. In my opinion this one has nicer coloration and more contrast than L147. These ind. were all sold as Para Pleco. Pleco 1. https://scontent-arn2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/16143167 ...

Thank you for your info. This is an interesting matter. Yes I don't know which river my fish was collected and I don't really know the real name of the fish, but my fish doesn't look like the ones that are "said" to be Upper Magdalena panaque cochilodon's. German importer: "Hi, we have imported them ...

Here video which shows respiratory rate. Water ~+28 celsius.

Yes BES, based on body odontodes and head shape.

My fish is Panaque Suttonorum.

From L-welse website: T:25-29 C, pH:5.5-7.5

Yes, discus food isn't good in long term, but I wouldn't be too afraid of that. I think I have enough experience with my other panaques. Still i will pay attention for this matter if discus and blue eye panaque in even possible to keep together in terms of water temperature. I'm more of a earth ...

I wouldn't consider it either, but i would like to put it to same tank with other plecos and nowadays I have discus too.

Here are blue eye and discus in same tank although it isn't probably the best comparison and ideal living conditions.

Hi, Is it safe to keep blue eye panaque in +31 celsius water? Most plecos are from Brazil Amazon basin and used to high temps but blue eye is from Colombia or Venezuela. I do know that most fish tolerate higher temps than recommended if oxygen saturation is at "max". Which makes me think there is no ...
