Both male to me as well..

COngrats on the spawn!

It'll definately be good if you can give it a bigger tank for it to reach its protential BIGGER size.

I dont think they're a tough pleco to take care of as well, only thing i know about the L200 is that it grows extemely slow....

Excellent shots! You can easily count the no of teeth in the 2nd picture.

I agree that boiling is the right way to do. I also encounter problem of the wood being too big to soak inside the pail, so what i did was to boil the water first and then pour them over the driftwood several times. Yes much more tedious work but hey at least its boiling water treatment.

The pic looks small, are there any odontodes on the spine of the pectoral fin?

For me, i feed my pleco every alternate day, the amount is what they can finish in about 10 mins or so. Normally I try to feed them in the dark because I've got other tankmates that eats a lot more with light!!!

Cool, how did you train them to feed off your hands?

If i'm not wrong the L177 stay the smallest among the "nuggets family"? My L177 is 5" and i dont think it can grow any bigger...

They're carnivorous so they'll need a meaty diet, eg carnivorous pellets, bloodworms, etc.

Is it true then that F1s are already start showing in the market?

Congrats kush for the spawn, the one in your picture looks stunning! More pictures please!

hi xsu xsu it looks like the one i got recently, was ID as C131.

Is this a C 77 Corydoras sp. cf acutus?

Anyone can ID this cory? It looked like a long-nosed melini to me!

This fellow is about 5-6" now, is that a male or female?

Yes its still alive! Was told that when you took the fish out of water the eyes will sunk in a little?

Hi everyone,

Like to share with everyone here the picture I took with one of the biggest panaque here in Singapore!

I have my C.Schwartzi at 29 degs and they're fine. Well its that warm here in Singapore!

What i normally do is to lure them to one corner. Use 2 hands if possible to press both their side of the body, make sure it doesnt throw itself around, then carry it up!

I'm feeling guilty, on average i only quarantine them for a week.

Hi Ian, Here's my observation from the 2. Cory A does look like a Corydoras sp. cf. treitlii. Are they suppose to have a saddlenose or round nose? Mine seems to have a round nosed, as compared to Cory B which has a saddlenose. Also, the dorsal and tail fin on Cory B is clear and has no markings. I d...

Cory B

I'm tried both methods, and even calling him (a dead line? ) but getting no response...

I'm not sure if i can get help from this channel but i'll try anyway. Anyone has contact with Larry Vires or knows how can I reach him? I need to contact him urgently regarding some sales order matters. I do not want to hurt anyone reputation immediately so please PM me in private if you can help me...

Mine was a Red tail catfish!!

Hi squid,

I have some bigger plecos like royals, pseudas and smaller ones like L253, L177, ancistrus with my arowana and so far they're friendly towards one another. I think the important thing is to have enough hiding space for the plecos.

One of the best setup i ever seen!!

I think the L046 is pretty allright with or without substrate, its not very particular on that.
