To me, she looks fat but not full of eggs. If you flashlight her belly, can you see eggs? The male will tend to bite the females fin back there to try to get her to know he is ready, but usually after a bite and no interest, males would let go.. Maybe he is just a jerk?

Woke up this morning to find my L600 dead. Im super pissed I really liked this guy. He was eating like a champ no sunken belly or white stringy poop. Ate NLS, Massivore, Omega One, and frozen krill. His stomach would look round and full and looked like he was showing new growth. He is in a 150 gal w...

Thanks barbie

I dont think it would die on its own. I would treat with anti parasite meds
If it is indeed a parasite

Thanks richard... why would that be your choice ?

Sorry for posting so much im looking to get a couple of plecos...so far i think im going to get an L600 to go in a 75 with a gold nugget and p. Aregentea (arg doesnt bother the gold nugget) I may also get one for a 150 that already has a green phantom looking for something colorful doesnt get Huge s...

The only l600 I can find are about 6 inches and the existing gold nugget is about 3 ...would that be a problem in a 75 gal. Also have a 150 with a green phantom but I think I would be pushing the limits on that tank bioload wise

Guys would putting an l600 or l273 in a 75 gal with a gold nugget and vieja argentea (does not bother plecos only conspecific aggression) be too much ?

Do l600 typically get much larger than 12 inches ?

Anyone with l273 ?
