Re: Cory IDs please

Hmmm. It looks like you have two (fish #1 and fish #3) Corydoras(ln8sc4) agassizii and the other fish (fish #2) is either the same or is Corydoras(ln8sc4) ambiacus . There are a few C and CW numbers in this group that look similar. I can't sex them from the photos. Yes, if these are two species (I'...

Cory IDs please

I thought I'd asked here about these but it seems I haven't. Got from a friend, who got them as Schwartzi (definitely not, no second black stripe). I suspect a mixture of ambiacus and agassizii after speaking with people? Although their side dots are in very uniform lines compared to pics on here of...

Re: Panaqolus Tankei? Size?

Hi @MoonstruckRainbows, I haven't kept Panaqolus tankei , but your fish do look like P. tankei. I've kept several other species of Panaqolus ( Panaqolus albivermis , Panaqolus albomaculatus , Panaqolus sp(L397) , Panaqolus claustellifer , and one of the clown pleco species (either P. maccus or L448...

Panaqolus Tankei? Size?

Morning all, I got these 4 beauties from a friend about 6 months ago as P. Tankei L398s (I know there are a few similar marked species). I'm only wondering now if they actually are Tankei as they don't seem to have grown at all - the P. maccus they were sharing a tank with have grown on and matured,...

Re: Spotted - 201, contradens, other?

Just updating for anyone who might be asking similar over their own fish in future - I found someone who bred both 201s & contradens, they have confirmed mine are 201s

Re: Pleco type ID by mouth?

Thank you!!
Thats a brilliant start you've given me, very very much appreciated.
Gnats, fats & flats is a really good easy way to help remember the subfamilies 🤣
Definitely asked in the right place if you're literally the wiki source!, 🥰

Re: Pleco type ID by mouth?

Thanks all! Genus was the word that escaped me when I first wrote the post 😅 that was what I meant by "family". As everyone has mentioned, there is ALOT of factors to identifying species & genus, and ALOT of species. An overwhelming quantity of species 😅 My brain likes patterns and gro...

Re: Pleco type ID by mouth?

Thank you for your reply :) Ive seen a few different mouth types when looking through various L nums, I hoped there may be some kind of guide or datasheet of type, diet, mouth features. As there isn't, maybe it's something I could begin working on as I look through pics to learn myself, may be usefu...

Is there any kind of guide already, or could someone explain for me, how people identify what family an unidentified pleco is from by their mouth structure?

Spotted - 201, contradens, other?

Hi all :d I acquired these guys recently from a fish room closing, seller said he thinks they're L201s and the 3 smaller could be offspring from the adult pair - but he got them & other plecos in a trade & doesn't actually know. Sadly I lost the adult female despite medication, as they had a...
