Where tell me!!!

Rofl

Mine run on Discus bits supplied by Frozen artemia and ocasionally beef heart(small amounts)

I have 2 breeding pairs in the same 160 liter tank, so you might say I am extremly lucky. They don't fight and the fry are left alone.

I have already been to the site, but GoC has been dorment in my eyes, but I shure hope it gets up and running.

I have for a long time missed a Scandinavian catfish board, so I went and made one :)
It's not big and I don't expect it to outgrow itself.
I am implementing a small L and LDA number resourceon the portal and hope to get some articles etc. in Scandinavian languages.

Interface carries Norwegian ...

If you look closely at the fins on the pic, you can clearly see the red inflammation? on them.

I had fried catfish when I was in Austin, Texas 4 years ago. I tasted a bit like Chicken

My plecos lack nothing pturley

It was more the behaviour of "dragging" it into the cave I was adressing.

I could also have written pleco instead of L-102, but that woulden't be correct would it?

I have had a old trichogaster leeri in a tank with my L-102 pair and this morning I failed to see her anywhere.
I searched the whole tank. She wasn't to be found anywhere, so I took a flashlight and looked in the caves. To my big surprise I found her dead in the cave where the female L-102 lives ...

I didn't explain well enough, it's 5 different zebras.
I have 2 more in stock, but I didn't want to put them through a full photo session at this point.
So I just took a few quick pictures, and to be hounest poor shots.

I am pretty certain of what I have, but there is so much confusing information on how to sex them.
I didn't wan't to disturb them to much, so I only took a few quick shots.
Any good suggestions :wink:

2 more

Can someone provide me with a working e-mail to them? Like so many exporters they do their damndest NOT to be visible anywhere on the net.

If you have some other reliable exporters you can recommend, then I would also be happy to receive info about them.

But have one of you actually bred them??

I had several breedings on them a couple of years back.

You can keep two males in the same tank, but only one will spawn with the females from what I've been told, so it would be a waste, IMO. They will fight some, but usually not once they establish dominance. It would be a better idea to get a 3rd female, IMO.

Can support Larry on this ...

hmm, not all pictures are by the author. The one on the left is by ME

I have kept these for my Norwegian audiance until know, but here they are in a "world premiere"

Thanks for the answer.

Yes Yann, the threads I found it in where a little "old"

Is there any truth in the rumours that there is a stop in capturing them?

I read somewhere that they only counted 5 specimens in a set watersurface and that it should have been 50 to continue capturing them.

I have a male L-102 that would make your pleco look thin

He is simply VERY well conditioned

I breed L-183 and L-102 in the same tank without any problem.
L-190 would be the wrong pleco to breed as its almost impossible in such a small environment.

The red marks on the hard ray of the pectoral fins are actually quite normal when they stay in caves. I have had a lot of troubled moments with the same thing, espesially since its also a tell tale of a pleco in trouble (sick).

My L-066's have them all the time, but its simply because the females ...

I have a hystrix that is about 5" and I have noticed it love to eat on roots. The poo looks just like that from my panaqulos'es, a distinct wood color.

Are these plecos like many others, they addapt their size to living conditions or will they outgrow a tank like gibbies do?

(suddently started wondering if Finland is considered as a part of Scandinavia...)
It's not in Scandinavia König Löwe.

But I do agree with you that the Scandinavians have no problems in partisipating on English forums. We might suck a little in the terms of correct spelling, but people tend to ...

Sorry about that, I had to reinstall my iis server so I moved the pics over to my webby.

You can find it under the articles section.

I have 2 breeding pairs, so I do my best to keep them seperated. I have a split 128 liter tank where I raise them till they reach 2-3 cm's. No problems when moving them to new tank's.

@kgroenhoej
Is that one of my little "babies"

Great that some of them survived.

I crush the tablet between my fingers into the floater and turn of the airstone for 20-30 minutes.

The fact that they had fungus on them, might be the reason for the male rejecting them, or it's because they where outside the cave to long.
If it's the first spawning it could also be due to the eggs being to long inside the female (old, bad ).

As Janne said, its important to have a deep cave. It has nothing to do with the smoothness of the pipe, but some plecos need a couple of runs to learn not to throw them out or be more careful.

As you can see from this pipecave, its a ...

Here is a nightshot of the eye.

Janne sent me a msg on a different matter and without knowing it meantioned L-199, I think it's a match with the one in the Cat-eLog.
