Re: Peppered Cory Width?

Was the PVC originally for another fish species or did you add it specifically for the Pepper Corys? I tend to agree with the other posters in that Cory's are shoaling fishes and appreciate wood pieces, plants, rocks, etc to relax and move amongst. I've never see any of my Corydoras hiding in a cich...

Laser Corydoras Variants?

Just a quick question as I was wondering how many variants of the Lazer Corys are in the hobby. I've heard of green, orange/gold and red.

Thanks,

Re: L129

Starting to dive more into plecos but I've noticed that there seems to be a lot more mislabeled fish these days. I've noticed the same thing occurring with the West African dwarf cichlids as well.

Ancistrus sp. - but which one?

Hi all, A friend passed by and gave me a pair of Bristlenose plecos (1m/1f).

Unfortunately Aquabid's sellers are primarily based in the US and I'm in Canada. With the additional cost of shipping, customs and clearance it wouldn't be worth it. I did manage to locate some breeders in Canada and am waiting to hear their responses.

Thanks for the info. It is strange that none of the LFS' in my city currently have any BN. There are however a lot of breeders, just not locally, as BN's are scarce these days around here.

My only problem is that there are absolutely no BN's available in any LFS at the moment. It looks like I'm going to have to find a breeder or importer myself, ...

I believe I have what is a Panaque maccus, see http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12713 , however as a self-confessed pleco newbie I differ to the experts on this forum.

That particular catfish was rushing in to the corner, not lying on its side. That picture was taken four months ago from within a quarantine tank and the catfish is very much alive, healthy and doing well. 8)

I know this is not the best picture, however if you save it to your PC and blow it up you will see the Synodontis catfish behind the Gephyrochromis acei. Just trying to determine the species?
